Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To win a product liability case based on strict liability, the plaintiff must only show that they suffered an injury caused by a defective product. It is not necessary for the plaintiff to show that the manufacturer sold the product to them or that they knew about the defect. However, the plaintiff must show that the defect caused their injury. Option A is incorrect because it is not necessary for Pico to show that Oven Products sold the oven to him. Option B is incorrect because it is not necessary for Pico to show that he knew about the defect. Option D is incorrect because the fact that the defect may have been a commonly known danger does not absolve the manufacturer of liability for injuries caused by the defect.
