Does Product Liability Cover Defective Products?

Potentially, for covered third-party injury or property damage caused by a defect; the product’s repair or replacement usually is not covered.

It generally does not pay to repair, replace, or recall the product itself.

Check the products-completed-operations limit and exclusions for your product and operations. Ask the insurer about the actual allegations, including damage to other property and any recall costs.
