When we purchase recreational vehicles like boats or jet skis, or their related safety and entertainment equipment, we are often only thinking of the enjoyment they can bring. We rarely think of the risks we could be taking, and we certainly never expect our purchases to be defective or dangerous.

Tragically Common Defects
Companies have obvious legal, moral, and financial motivations to ensure that all of their products are safe and effective. Despite this, defective goods continue to be placed on the market with alarming frequency. Product defects that can be very dangerous for boaters and other beachgoers include:
- Faulty engines that may fail, be difficult to control, or cause fires
- Poor ventilation systems, which can cause fires or carbon monoxide poisoning
- Steering system failures, which cause collisions with objects or swimmers
- Defective safety equipment like life vests, alarm systems, and fire extinguishers
- Defective masts, seats, or other parts that detach from the boat too easily
Defects like these contributed to 513 accidents and 42 deaths across the US in 2007. If you have been injured by these preventable problems, a Phoenix boating equipment defect lawyer can help.
