A Massachusetts attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for three weeks. A starting point could be to review the terms of the agreement or consult with an attorney to review them with you. Good luck
I’m not the only one this is happened to according to the reviews I imagine it was just poor quality material as I have pictures of everything. The bolt heads were sheared off. Minimal damage done to truck and nobody hurt, but money had to be paid for a rental and other expenditures.

You may have a claim. You'll want to get together the medical records then give me a call and I can give you the names of some attorneys to speak with. Ask for the records to be "electronic" records, on a CD rom--way cheaper than paper.

if i was sold a product that was faulty, and was "repaired" twice within warranty because of that defect, but failed again because of the same defect after warranty, is there any legal recourse? any law that says i should be refunded or my product should be replaced?

Damages for not having product a)require showing that they knew time was of the essence and why
b) proof of the damages.
