Manufacturing Defect

A Manufacturing Defect is a flaw or error that occurs during the production, assembly, or quality control process that causes an individual product or batch of products to deviate from the manufacturer's intended design specifications. Unlike design defects, manufacturing defects typically affect only some units rather than the entire product line. Claims arising from manufacturing defects often involve evidence comparing the defective unit to properly manufactured products.
