14. Radials, rollovers and responsibility: an examination of the Ford-Firestone case

Abstract

In August of 2000, Firestone executives initiated the second largest tire recall in U.S. history. Many of the recalled fires had been installed as original factory equipment on the popular Ford Explorer SUVs. At the time of the recall, the tires and vehicles had been linked to numerous accidents and deaths, most of which occurred when tire blowouts resulted in vehicle rollovers. While Firestone's role in this case has been widely acknowledged, Ford executives have managed to deflect much of the attention away from themselves, mainly by claiming that the Firestone tires were not its product, and therefore not its responsibility. In this paper, we examine the extent to which Ford can be held morally responsible for the incidents at issue. In so doing, we develop an approach for determining when an item is a product in its own right, as opposed to a component of another product. We argue that such an analysis not only provides a better understanding of this case, but also more properly accounts for the extent to which evolutions in technology and business relationships can affect issues of moral responsibility in business contexts. KEY WORDS: assembler, component, Firestone, Ford, part, partmaker, product safety, products liability, responsibility, sport-utility vehicles, tires

25. Duty to recall, retrofit, or provide post-sale warnings.

Author

Riley, Jack T., Jr.

Subjects
Failure to warn (Law) -- Cases, Product recalls -- Cases, Products liability -- Cases, Consumer protection -- Cases
Abstract

Courts have become more reluctant to impose upon manufacturers a duty to recall or retrofit products, but have been more willing to impose a duty to warn on such manufacturers. This post-sale duty to warn is more likely to be invoked in cases where the company has an ongoing relationship with purchasers, when the product has a long life, if there is any potential danger to the owner of the product, and if the company had notice of the design defect.
