Failure to Warn

Failure to warn is a legal concept where a manufacturer or seller is accused of not providing enough important safety information about a product. If they know or should know about potential risks but do not inform consumers, and someone is harmed as a result, they may be held responsible. Essentially, it’s about the duty to ensure users are aware of known dangers so they can use the product safely. This obligation helps prevent injuries by making sure warnings and instructions are clear and sufficient.
