Understanding Product Liability Cases

Common Causes

  • Design defects making products unreasonably dangerous for their intended use
  • Manufacturing defects from errors in the production process
  • Failure to warn consumers of known risks and proper usage
  • Defective automotive components including tires, airbags, and seatbelts
  • Dangerous pharmaceutical drugs and medical devices
  • Defective consumer electronics that overheat or catch fire

Typical Injuries

  • Burns from products that overheat, explode, or ignite
  • Traumatic injuries from defective automotive safety equipment
  • Adverse drug reactions and side effects from dangerous medications
  • Choking and suffocation from defective children products
  • Lacerations and amputations from defective tools and appliances
  • Illness and organ damage from contaminated food or pharmaceutical products

Establishing Liability

Texas product liability claims can proceed under three theories, design defect, manufacturing defect, and marketing defect (failure to warn). Strict liability applies in many product defect cases, meaning the plaintiff does not need to prove the manufacturer was negligent, only that the product was defective and caused the injury. Expert testimony from engineers, toxicologists, and industry specialists helps establish that the product was unreasonably dangerous and that a safer alternative design existed.

Relevant Texas Law

Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Chapter 82 governs product liability actions and establishes a 15 year statute of repose for most products under Section 82.005. Texas follows a risk utility test for design defect claims, requiring the plaintiff to show the product risks outweighed its utility and that a safer alternative design was economically and technologically feasible. Under Section 82.003, a manufacturer rebuttable presumption of no design defect exists when the product complied with applicable government safety standards.
