Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Rev Motor Company and Sparkplugs Inc. would both be strictly liable for any damage caused by the defects since Rev incorporates the parts into their vehicles without altering them, and Sparkplugs Inc. is the manufacturer of the defective parts. Strict liability in product liability cases often applies to both the manufacturer of the defective part and the manufacturer of the final product that incorporates the defective part.
