Can an appliance or product be too old to bring a product liability case to court?
A. The appliance or product’s age is generally not an issue, though trying to pursue a product liability case for a product that is still in use after its generally recognized lifespan has expired would be futile. The time frame when you file for the product defect claim is the matter of utmost importance. The claim must be filed within two years from the time the injury or accident occurred.
