Syllabus

¶0 Appellants sued a car manufacturer for products liability. The district court granted the manufacturer's motion for summary judgment, holding that Texas's statute of repose barred Appellants' claim. Appellants appealed, and the Court of Civil Appeals reversed, concluding Texas law did not apply. This Court granted certiorari. We hold that, under the facts and circumstances of this case, Texas has the most significant relationship to the occurrence and parties involved, and Texas's statute of repose bars Appellants' claim. COURT OF CIVIL APPEALS' OPINION VACATED; DISTRICT COURT'S JUDGMENT AFFIRMED.
