Defective Products in Dallas: How to Hold Manufacturers Accountable

When we buy products — whether it’s a new appliance, a car, or even a child’s toy — we expect them to work safely and as advertised. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case. Every year, thousands of Texans are injured or killed by defective products that should never have reached store shelves.

From malfunctioning brakes to exploding batteries, these failures can cause catastrophic injuries, emotional trauma, and massive financial loss. When this happens, you have the right to demand accountability — not just from the retailer, but from the manufacturer, designer, and anyone involved in the chain of production.

At Claim Wars, we represent Dallas victims of defective and dangerous products, helping them pursue justice and full compensation under Texas product liability law.

Understanding Product Liability in Texas

Product liability refers to the legal responsibility manufacturers, distributors, and sellers have for injuries caused by their products. Under Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code §82.001, a company can be held liable if a product is defectively designed, defectively manufactured, or sold without adequate warnings or instructions.

There are three main types of product defects:

• Design Defects:
  These are flaws in the product’s blueprint — meaning it was inherently unsafe even before manufacturing began. For example, a car that tends to roll over due to poor weight distribution has a design defect.
• Manufacturing Defects:
  These occur when something goes wrong during the production process. A single faulty batch of airbag inflators that explode on impact, for instance, would fall into this category.
• Marketing Defects (Failure to Warn):
  A company must warn consumers about risks that aren’t obvious. If a pain medication can cause internal bleeding and the label fails to mention it, that’s a failure to warn.

Each of these defects can form the basis of a lawsuit — and Claim Wars knows how to build strong cases that expose negligence at every level.

Common Defective Products We See in Dallas

Dangerous products appear across all industries and price ranges. Some of the most common examples include:

• Defective car parts (brakes, airbags, seatbelts, tires)
• Home appliances that catch fire or shock users
• Power tools lacking safety features or proper guards
• Medical devices that malfunction or break down inside the body
• Prescription drugs with undisclosed or severe side effects
• Children’s toys with choking hazards or toxic materials

In each case, we work to trace the defect back to its source — whether it’s the designer, manufacturer, or distributor — and hold them fully accountable.

Who Can Be Held Responsible

One of the most powerful aspects of product liability law is that multiple parties can share liability. Depending on your case, those responsible may include:

• The manufacturer (for faulty design or construction)
• The distributor or wholesaler (for knowingly selling defective goods)
• The retailer (for failing to remove recalled or unsafe products from shelves)
• The marketing company (for misleading claims or lack of warning labels)

At Claim Wars, our team investigates every layer of the supply chain to ensure no negligent party escapes accountability.

Injuries Caused by Defective Products

Defective products can cause a wide range of serious injuries, such as:

• Burns and electrical shock
• Fractures and crush injuries
• Head and spinal cord trauma
• Organ damage or internal bleeding
• Severe allergic reactions or poisoning
• Permanent disability or wrongful death

Many victims face long hospital stays, costly rehabilitation, and emotional suffering that impacts their families for years. Our mission at Claim Wars is to make sure victims are financially supported while they recover.

Compensation You May Be Entitled To

Victims of defective products in Dallas may be eligible for substantial compensation, including:

• Medical expenses (past and future)
• Lost income and reduced earning capacity
• Pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
• Loss of enjoyment of life
• Punitive damages in extreme cases

Our attorneys pursue the maximum possible recovery, whether through settlement or trial.

Why Product Liability Cases Are Complex

These cases can be challenging because manufacturers and their insurers often have vast resources to defend themselves. They’ll try to argue that:

• The product was “misused”
• The injury resulted from user error
• The defect was not foreseeable
• The victim altered the product after purchase

That’s why you need a team like Claim Wars on your side — one that knows how to gather technical evidence, consult with expert witnesses, and prove fault under Texas product liability law.

What to Do After a Product-Related Injury

If you were injured by a defective product, take these critical steps:

1. Seek medical help immediately. Your health comes first.
2. Preserve the product. Don’t throw it away — it’s vital evidence.
3. Document everything. Take photos of your injuries, receipts, and product packaging.
4. Avoid speaking with the manufacturer’s insurer. They’re not on your side.
5. Contact Claim Wars. We’ll evaluate your claim for free and guide you through every step.
