July 9, 197465 N.J. 336
Summary
The Supreme Court of New Jersey affirmed the Appellate Division, holding that the evidence was sufficient to survive the dealer's motion for summary judgment on all theories—negligence, strict liability under Restatement §402A, and breach of express and implied warranties. The Court also declared that a used‑car dealer is subject to strict liability for defective work performed before sale.
