There are three ways that motorcycle gear can be legally defective under Nevada products liability law. First, the product may have a manufacturing defect. For example, the padding may be ripped on the inside of a helmet. The flap on a piece of luggage may be loose. A manufacturing defect is unique to that specific item. It’s an unintentional error during production.
On the other hand, a design defect is a flawed design. All of the manufactured items have the same defect. For example, if the helmet doesn’t have sufficient padding, it may be a manufacturing defect. When a product has a manufacturing defect, the product doesn’t perform in a way that a consumer would expect it to perform.
