§ 32-9 Products Liability - Manufacturer's Duty to Recall or Retrofit its Products

A manufacturer has no duty to notify previous purchasers of its products about later developed safety devices or to retrofit those products if the products were nondefective under standards existing at the time of the manufacture or sale. A product must be measured against a standard existing at the time of sale or against reasonable customer expectations held at the time of the sale.
