Does Product Liability Cover Manufacturing Defects?

Potentially, for covered injury or property damage caused by a manufacturing flaw; fixing defective units is a separate cost.

It generally does not pay to repair or replace defective units or cover a recall automatically.

List products, production sites, contract manufacturers, and component suppliers. Check completed-operations terms, product exclusions, limits, and any vendor or additional-insured endorsements.
