Amelia Risk distinguishes product recall from product liability: recall insurance pays the costs and expenses of pulling a product from the market, while product liability covers third-party bodily-injury or property-damage claims caused by the product; the two are separate policies that can both respond to the same contamination event. ⁵Company-reported. CPG page FAQ 2. Also notes that some general liability policies include only low sublimits for recall, not a substitute for a dedicated recall policy.
