You are short one roof truss, stop or finish building?

I doubt that would hold up, going after the inspector, that is. Three years is a long time. Whoever would do the going-after would only get back what they spent on the inspection, anyway. Whoever built the d*** thing should have their head examined.

most of the time the limits of liability is the refunding of the cost of the estimate. I would contact them for missing it just as a matter of priciple as it should have been pretty obvious unless it is difficult to get to that spot?

Should a home inspector be responsible

NO !!!

That's an easy fix just nail stringers every 16" between truss and truss roof joist and roof joist, in whatever size the truss and joist are. Don't sweat the details just fix them.

My neighbor's 5 year old barn ended up with no ground, just 2 wires in metallic conduit, and the builder had gone out of business. She called the electrical inspectors, who revisited, saw their sticker on the load center, and paid $4K for an electrician to rewire it.

The attic has a 2 by 2 foot access from a closet, easy to get up there. You just have to be careful walking around.

Why? It's still there isn't it?

No. And you can be sure it's in a contract somewhere, they will not be held liable for anything they might have missed.
