Canadians have days left to claim part of $50-million settlement
Summary
Canadians have until Tuesday, May 12, to submit a claim for a $50 million portion of a nationwide auto parts class-action settlement. The settlement, which totals approximately $78 million across 23 class actions, alleges that automotive part manufacturers conspired to fix prices. While the defendants did not admit wrongdoing, the case stems from global criminal investigations. Eligible Canadians must have purchased or leased a new passenger car, SUV, van, or light pick-up truck from specific manufacturers between 2003 and 2018. This final distribution includes "newly included vehicles" and "previously included vehicles" from firms like Siskinds LLP and Sotos LLP. Payments will be distributed proportionally, with a minimum payment of $25 per claim.
