Sal purchased a used toaster at a yard sale. The seller told Sal that although the toaster was more than 10 years old, she had not had any problems with it. Sal takes the toaster home and uses it for a few months. One day, however, as Sal was using the toaster, it malfunctioned and caused a small fire in Sal's kitchen along with significant smoke damage. Sal decides to sue the manufacturer of the toaster and will do so within one month of the fire. What would likely be the manufacturer's best defense in a strict liability in tort action brought by Sal?
