  1. Design defects that exist before manufacture of a product. The product may be dangerous due to a design flaw.
  2. Manufacturing defects, the Legal Information Institute notes. In these instances, manufacturing defects occur during production of an item.
  3. Defects in marketing, such as giving improper instructions or failure to warn consumers of potential dangers.
