Today's Terms
Causation
Definition:
If you find that the product is defective because it failed to provide a warning when one was reasonably required or because the warning was inadequate, then you will go on to consider the element of causation.
Inadequate Warning
Definition:
Manufacturers not only have a duty to warn, but they may also have to recall a defective product that is already on store shelves. Federal law makes it mandatory to recall certain products, like cars and toys.
Extended warranty
Definition:
A service contract is sold separately and is a promise to pay for certain repairs or services. Service contracts are usually high-profit add-ons, costing hundreds to more than $1,000.
