-If you find validator not getting type inference or member completion isn’t working, annotating the argument with the expected type may help address these problems.
+::: warning
+Because of a [design limitation](https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/38845) in TypeScript when it comes
+to type inference of function expressions, you have to be careful with `validators` and `default` values for objects and arrays:
+:::
+
+```ts
+import { defineComponent, PropType } from 'vue'
+
+interface Book {
+  title: string
+  year?: number
+}
+
+const Component = defineComponent({
+  props: {
+    bookA: {
+      type: Object as PropType<Book>,
+      // Make sure to use arrow functions
+      default: () => ({
+        title: "Arrow Function Expression"
+      }),
+      validator: (book: Book) => !!book.title
+    },
+    bookB: {
+      type: Object as PropType<Book>,
+      // Or provide an explicit this parameter
+      default(this: void) {
+        return {
+          title: "Function Expression"

+      validator(this: void, book: Book) {
