What Insurance Covers Product Injuries?

Product-liability coverage may cover third-party bodily injury caused by a product; replacing or recalling the product is separate.

Product-liability coverage, often within CGL, addresses that liability rather than warranty repair costs.

Check products-completed-operations terms, insured products, limits, exclusions, and separate recall protection. Damage to your own product is treated differently from injury to a customer.
