products liability action against the manufacturer or seller by a user of the product who

is subsequently injured or damaged as a result of the defect.

be defective.

5. An action to recover damages based on injury to property allegedly resulting from the

presence of products containing asbestos fibers of any type must be commenced

within six years of the date upon which the owner of that property knew or should have
