I can’t agree with an arbitrary cap at 10 years. I would say cap it at the expected useful life of the product. If I buy a mower and the manufacturer says it will run 50 years, they’re on the hook for manufacturing defects for 50 years. If they say it will run 10 and I keep it 20, my bad. The burden would be even greater on the consumer though, to prove manufacturing defects after so many years. It would be much easier to defend against decades of probable bad maintenance and neglect.
