The doctrine of liability fixation in product liability is the basis and criterion of determining the civil liability of manufacturers and customers. According to the different status of manufacturers and customers, our present law implements the principle of strict liability, fault liability, presumptive wrongs and vicarious liability respectively. In order to adjust to the new condition in tort of product liability and conform to the tide of the times, we should define strict liability rule as the doctrine of liability fixation in the legislation and make it more perfect.
