The legal liability of manufacturers and sellers to compensate buyers, users, and bystanders for damages or injuries suffered because of defects in good purchase or a tort which makes the manufacturer or seller liable if the product has a defective condition that makes it unreasonably dangerous.
Causation

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.
