Theory of manufacture care:


Manufacture theory teaches us that while manufacturing any things what kind of
thing we have to keep in our mind to prevent our consumer from any kind of
injury or misleading.
There are three kinds of theory of manufacture’s care
1. Contract theory
2. Due care theory
3. Social cost theory

Contract theory:
The relationship between business and customer is contractual. All the duties
and right of customers are according to contract that take place between
them.

Due care theory:


This theory explain that the consumer depends on the greater expertise of the
manufacturer. The duty of manufacturer is not only to deliver the right
product. This is also manufacturer duty that the product should also fulfill all
the requirements that they claim and it is also manufacturers duty to exercise
due care to prevent other to get injured by the product still if anything
happened then manufacturer will be responsible for such accident.

Social cost theory:


According to this theory the duties of the manufacturer extend far beyond
those imposed by contractual and due care duties; manufacturers should pay
the cost of any injuries sustained through any defects in their products, even
when they exercise due care and have taken all reasonable precautions.
(Related to the legal doctrine of strict liability)

Define the social cost’s view of manufacturer's duties to consumers.


How it has become criticized

According to this third theory a manufacturer has a duty to assume the risks
of even those injuries that arise out of defects in the product that no one could
reasonably have foreseen or eliminated. The theory is a strong version of the
doctrine of caveat vendor: let the seller take care.
The major criticism of the social costs view of the manufacturer’s duties is
that is unfair. It is unfair, the critics charge, because it violates the basic
cannons of compensatory justice.
Social cost theorists counter by pointing out that, in reality, the costs of
consumer liability suits are not large. Less than 1% of product-related injuries
result in suits, and successful suits average only a few thousand dollars in any
case
A third argument against the social the social costs theory focuses on the
financial burdens the theory imposes on manufacturers and insurance
carriers.
