Recalls Happen Everyday on All Sorts of U.S. Products: Products Liability and Injury Lawsuits

It is very good news for all American consumers that manufacturers issue these voluntary recalls of their products when it is discovered that the product can hurt or seriously injure (even kill) someone.  Of course, there are those who will point out that this is in the manufacturer’s best interests, since they are legally liable for any injuries that their products cause.
