Scissor Jack Defect Lawyer – Injury Lawsuit
Scissor jacks are jacks that open up like a scissor or criss cross design, to jack something heavy up into the air. These scissor jacks can be dangerous to users even if not defective. But if they are defective, then there is a high likelihood of a serious injury that will ensue with the use of a scissor jack tool. It is important to read the various instructions on how to safely use a scissor jack. But if the tool is defective straight from the manufacturer, then it is going to be difficult to know about the defect before using the tool in a safe manner.
Many defects on a scissor jack could have and should have been fixed by the manufacturer in the plant. The scissor jack can have several areas of defects, such as even when it is used for the proper purpose. The manufacturer of a scissor jack has the responsibility to safely create, design and manufacture the scissor jack tool. This tool is used to lift heavy objects such as cars or other heavy equipment up into the air, while there may be people under the object fixing it or doing other operations to the object being raised. If the scissor jack is defective, the entire tool and heavy object can come crashing down to crush or kill the person working under it at the time the defect breaks. This is an inherently dangerous situation, and is solely the fault of the manufacturer.
Scissor Jack Tools Need to Be Checked by the Manufacturer for Quality Control
Like anything that is made on an assembly line and for use by the public, the scissor jack tool needs to be quality control checked at each stage of the manufacturing process, to ensure that there are no defects in the tool. Even if a manufacturer creates, designs and manufactures a nut or a bolt, if it is defective, it can take down an entire system that it is used in, and people can die in the process of even this minor of a defect. In the case of a scissor jack, this tool is meant to hold heavy objects up into the air. With the idea that someone can be crawling under the scissor jack
tool to fix something, it is a highly dangerous proposition that the tool comes out of the package with a fatal flaw or defect, that can injure someone with its use.
The manufacturer of a scissor jack tool is expected to have a quality control department looking at every scissor jack tool that is made, and that comes off the assembly line in a safe manner for operation. It is unacceptable that a scissor jack comes out of the package defective – which is going to be an invitation for people in the buying public and the consumers who use the tool to be injured severely from this defective tool.
