Question

Under the product liability theory of strict liability as expressed in the Restatement (Second) of torts, what is an essential fact that must be present if strict liability may be used in a lawsuit as the basis for recovery

Answer 1

Answer:

A). The product  must be unreasonably dangerous.

Explanation:

The 'product liability theory of strict liability' law may consider the manufacturer or retailer liable for injuries caused by the use of their product even if that product has been designed safely for the consumers and it contains a warning label also that clearly states the harm it may cause. But the application of strict liability takes place only on the condition of 'the product being unreasonably dangerous' and the risk of harm(as thought by manufacturer) surpasses the advantages. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
