In the United States a manufacturer of goods and products to be distributed in commerce has the obligation and responsibility to market safe products. This is a change from caveat emptor ("let the buyer beware") to strict liability for manufacturing defects that make a product unreasonably dangerous.
Under Tort law, a manufacturer is held liable when one of its products, placed on the market with the knowledge that it will be used without inspection for defects, proves to have a defect that causes personal injury or death.
A person who is injured or (his or her estate) killed may have a cause of action against the persons who designed, manufactured, sold, or furnished that product. In the United States, some consumers have hailed the rapid growth of product liability litigation as an effective tool for consumer protection.
