7. PRODUCT-RELATED LIABILITIES

The Company is exposed to product liability and warranty claims in the event that the Company’s products fail to perform as represented and such failure results, or is alleged to result, in bodily injury, and/or property damage or other loss. The Company has reserves for product risks. Such reserves are related to product performance issues, including recalls, product liability, and warranty issues. For further explanation, see Note 8. Contingent Liabilities below.

For the three months period ended March 31, 2025, new provisions and cash payments mainly related to warranty-related issues. For the three months period ended March 31, 2024, provisions mainly related to warranty-related issues and cash payments mainly related to recall-related issues. As of March 31, 2025, the reserve for product-related liabilities mainly consisted of recall-related issues.

The table below summarizes the change in the balance sheet position of the product-related liabilities (dollars in millions). The reserve for product-related liabilities is included in accrued expenses and other non-current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. A majority of the Company’s product-related liabilities as of March 31, 2025 are covered by insurance. Insurance receivables are included within other current assets and other non-current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had total insurance receivables of $54 million.
