Design Defects: The product is not safe for its normally intended use, and in some cases, for its normal foreseeable use. This second condition is important because some products are safe by themselves or only when used in certain situations, but combined or used with another product or situation could become dangerous.

Manufacturing Defects: The product was not manufactured properly, parts were defective, or unsafe in some way.

Marketing Defects: Products must have sufficient warning labels and instructions for proper use.
