Our law firm litigates product liability cases. A product liability lawyer fights for people who used a product safely and suffered an injury from it. Table saws, medical devices, electric scooters, scissor lifts, baby loungers are just some examples. Within this space we have represented people who purchased a product from Amazon.com and had a serious injury. Having dealt with these cases early on, we have tracked recent developments concerning Amazon product injuries. Here’s some interesting information.

Amazon Product Recalls Action – CPSC Takes Action Protecting Consumers from Hazardous Products on Amazon

At KBA Attorneys, we fight for individuals that defective and dangerous products injure. From faulty medical devices to hazardous consumer goods, we are committed to holding manufacturers, distributors, and online marketplaces accountable for the harm they cause.

One of our key priorities is ensuring consumer safety through education. That’s why we closely monitor product recalls like: the Ford F-150 recall; the RMU medical device; the BioZorb surgical implant; the Cartiva toe implant; the Impella heart pump; the Accolade Pacemaker; and the Fisher-Price Snugabunny Swing recall.

You can learn more about these recalls and related legal issues on our website.

Amazon’s Liability for Hazardous Products

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) issued a final order requiring Amazon to implement remediation plans for hazardous products it makes available on its platform. This marks a significant step forward in addressing the risks associated with products purchased from online marketplaces.

The CPSC’s Decision and Order approves, with modifications. Amazon.com, Inc.’s Proposed Notification and Action Plan. This concerns over 400,000 hazardous products sold through Amazon’s “Fulfilled by Amazon” program. These products include children’s sleepwear that fail to meet flammability standards, carbon monoxide detectors that do not alarm, and hair dryers lacking electrocution protection.

The CPSC determined that Amazon acted as a distributor under the Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA) and that the aforementioned products present substantial product hazards. Consequently, Amazon is required to:

  1. Public Notification: Issue public notices to inform consumers about the hazards associated with these products.
  2. Direct Notification: Provide direct notifications to purchasers, detailing the risks and necessary actions.
  3. Remedial Actions: Offer full refunds to consumers upon return or proof of destruction of the hazardous products. For the carbon monoxide detectors, Amazon must provide replacement products upon return.

The CPSC’s approval of Amazon’s plan includes specific modifications to ensure public safety and compliance with the CPSA. The Commission also addressed and rejected Amazon’s constitutional challenges related to free speech and takings claims.

Amazon’s business model, which includes both direct sales and third-party sellers, has made it a central player in product liability law. While e-commerce platforms offer convenience and variety, they also expose consumers to serious safety risks, including defective or misrepresented items that cause injury or harm.

Why Amazon Product Safety is a Legal Challenge

The rapid growth of online marketplaces like Amazon has changed the way consumers purchase goods. Unfortunately, this evolution has created new challenges for consumer safety:

-Lack of Oversight: Products sold by third-party sellers often bypass traditional safety regulations.
– Complex Supply Chains: Tracing liability is difficult when manufacturers and sellers operate globally.
– Limited Accountability: E-commerce platforms frequently deny responsibility for defective products.
– Volume of Unsafe Goods: The high volume of products sold increases the chances of unsafe items reaching consumers.
