Owners Without Defective EcoBoost Engines Sued Ford Anyway - Autoblog

 

In a twist of events, three plaintiffs filed suits against Ford during this time, when their Ecoboost engines were not included in the recall, and they ended up overpaying for their cars. They go on to claim that this overpaying has caused them “personal injury.” Ford has gone on to say that the plaintiffs had no problems with their vehicles or EcoBoost engines.

The presiding judge did say that overpaying qualifies as “monetary harm” and can be classified as an injury. The plaintiffs must have a plausible argument or proof that the products are indeed defective. To clear the suit, however, Ford says that these plaintiffs’ Ecoboost engines were made and purchased prior to the May 1, 2021, to October 31, 2021, production period, during which the defective valves were present.

 

The judge ruled in favor of dismissing the class action suit after he said the plaintiffs lacked proof of a defect in the design or manufacturing of their specific Ecoboost engines.

How did they determine they overpaid? That makes no sense. 

The attorneys drumming up the class action suit determined it. Doesn’t matter if it makes no sense as long as the attorneys get a big payday.

Don Henley had it right.  "Kill all the lawyers kill 'em tonight".  Ok not all of them just the ambulance chasing class action suit filers.
