While a product can be considered &quot;not defective&quot; from an engineering point-of-view it might still be defective from a legal one.This article discusses how engineers can help avoid product liability pitfalls by considering legal definitions of product defect in the design process, choosing their words carefully when dealing with customers, and working to ensure sales and marketing representations are grounded in product design capabilities. </style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">25743393</style></accession-num><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rossler, Paul E. 1; Email Address: paul.rossler@okstate.edu High, Martin S. 1; Affiliation: 1: Oklahoma State University; Source Info: Jun2007, Vol. 19 Issue 2, p23; Subject Term: PRODUCTS liability; Subject Term: ENGINEERING; Subject Term: STRICT liability; Subject Term: ENGINEERING design; Subject Term: PRODUCT safety; Author-Supplied Keyword: Engineering Design; Author-Supplied Keyword: Engineering Law; Author-Supplied Keyword: Product Safety; Author-Supplied Keyword: Products Liability; Author-Supplied Keyword: Strict Liability; Number of Pages: 8p; Illustrations: 2 Charts; Document Type: Article</style></notes></record></records></xml>
