Today's Terms
Unanticipated, Unforeseeable, or Unintended Use
Definition:
The product was NOT used in the way it was intended to be used. Or, the manufacturer had no way of knowing that a certain person could access the product.
Service bulletin
Definition:
Allows dealers to repair the problem at no cost to the customer even if the warranty has expired. A service bulletin notifies the dealer of the problem and how to resolve it.
Civil Liability
Definition:
In a civil lawsuit, if a party is found to be at fault, that party is liable. This is equivalent to a guilty verdict in the criminal system, except that civil liability usually means that the party at fault pays money damages to the other party, whereas the guilty party in a criminal suit may have to go to prison.
