RICHARD S. ARNOLD, Circuit Judge.

In this case an ultimate buyer sues up the stream of commerce alleging warranty, contract, and tort claims against the direct seller, tort and warranty claims against the distributor, and tort and warranty claims against the manufacturer. The District Court dismissed all claims on motions to dismiss and for summary judgment. We affirm in part and reverse in part.
