A tire manufacturer has recently discovered that numerous lots of tires produced at one of their plants over recent months used a defective synthetic
material. The result was that these tires are far too likely to rupture at much
lower air pressure levels than normal. This has led to many accidents,
including some fatalities. The company has not been able to determine why
the material was defective. Which of the following is likely to be true in this
situation?
O A. The manufacturer as a company will be liable to pay significant
amounts of money to those harmed by the defective tires.
O B. Because it is not clear why the material is defective, the
manufacturing company themselves cannot be held responsible.
C. If the company can recall all defective tires as soon as it has
discovered its fault, it will not be held liable for the accidents that
already took place.
O D. The company is obligated to find the individual responsible for the
defective material so that he or she can be punished.
