SILAK, Justice Jeffrey Oats brought this action to recover for personal injuries he suffered while riding as a passenger in
a 1978 Datsun 280Z 2+2 sports car manufactured by Nissan. Oats's claims against Nissan were based on theories of defective
design, failure to warn, and breach of warranty. The district court granted summary judgment to Nissan, concluding that Oats's
design defect and failure to warn claims were barred by the statute of repose set forth in the Idaho Product Liability Reform
Act (IPLRA), and that Oats's breach of warranty claim was barred by the Uniform Commercial Code's four year statute of limitations.
Oats appeals from the order of summary judgment. For the reasons set forth below, we affirm in part, reverse in part, vacate
the order of summary judgment, and remand for further proceedings. I. FACTS AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND
