OPINION
RONALD LEE GILMAN, Circuit Judge.
Newell Rubbermaid, Inc. (Newell) filed this subrogation action to hold The Raymond Corporation (Raymond) liable for workers’ compensation benefits that New- ell paid its employee, Jean Hashman, after she sustained injuries in a forklift accident at work. Raymond had designed and manufactured the forklift. Newell asserts that a design defect—the failure to include a rear guard door on the forklift—caused Hashman’s injuries when her left foot slipped out of the operator compartment and was crushed between the forklift and a warehouse structure.
