This is the second installment in our suite on Known Defects and Mass Torts. Last month, we discussed the Ford Pinto cases from the 1970's. Today, we are back in present day with another allegation of automobile defects: are auto manufacturers' laudable efforts to go green causing damages to those cars? Specifically, are the newer soy-based wire coatings and other plant-based coatings particularly enticing to rodents?
Join Steve and Rebecca as they discuss the cases that are currently being litigated around these issues, and how the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act can provide additional avenues for plaintiffs to recover in cases like these.
