COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

For a description of the Company’s litigation and contingencies, refer to Note 14 of the Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018 included in the Company’s Prospectus. The Company reviews the adequacy of its legal reserves on a quarterly basis and establishes reserves for loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable. The Company’s accrual for legal matters that were probable and reasonably estimable was $81 million and $83 million as of September 27, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and includes certain estimated costs of settlement, damages and defense.

The Company generally accrues estimated warranty costs at the time of sale. In general, manufactured products are warranted against defects in material and workmanship when properly used for their intended purpose, installed correctly and appropriately maintained. Warranty periods depend on the nature of the product and range from 90 days up to the life of the product. The amount of the accrued warranty liability is determined based on historical information such as past experience, product failure rates or number of units repaired, estimated cost of material and labor and in certain instances estimated property damage. The accrued warranty liability is reviewed on a quarterly basis and may be adjusted as additional information regarding expected warranty costs becomes known.

The following is a rollforward of the Company’s accrued warranty liability ($ in millions):
