Utah Strict liability is a form of legal liability that holds a defendant liable for harm caused regardless of fault or negligence. This type of liability applies when a manufacturer produces a product that is inherently dangerous, even when the product is used as intended. It can also apply to those who service a product or are involved in the distribution chain, such as retailers. The elements of a claim for failure to adequately warn under Utah Strict liability are as follows: # The defendant designed, manufactured, sold, or serviced a product; # The product was unreasonably dangerous; # The plaintiff was injured as a result of using the product; # The defendant knew or should have known that the product was dangerous; # The defendant failed to provide adequate warnings of the dangers associated with the product; and # The plaintiff's injury was caused by the defendant's failure to adequately warn. There are two main types of Utah Strict liability claims: design defect and failure to warn. A design defect claim requires that the plaintiff prove that the product was designed in a way that made it unreasonably dangerous, and that the defendant failed to adopt a safer alternative design. A failure to warn claim requires that the plaintiff prove that the product was dangerous and that the defendant failed to provide adequate warnings of the dangers associated with the product.
