if you are using a product that has a known defect (maybe there is not a safety guard by a circulating blade / saw or perhaps you notice your car is not braking quite right and the problem is getting worse) but you continue to use it, it can be argued you assumed a risk by continuing to use the product or that you were negligent in not taking the product to be repaired.So even if there is a defective product on the market the manufacturer can argue it is still not liable if you are hurt (!!).

Does it appear the law favors manufacturers / sellers of products or not?Or do you think consumers have it better than manufacturers?Findat least one article online (or in a regular magazine or publication!) that addresses this topic and use information from that source to help you answer this question.Properly cite to that source.
