Class Action Hero

Sherwood v. FCA Canada Inc. et al

Dusevic & Garcha has filed the within proposed multi-jurisdictional class proceeding which involves allegation that 2014-2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2021-2023 Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator, 2014-2020 and 2022-2023 and Dodge Ram 1500 diesel vehicles designed, manufactured, assembled, tested, marketed, distributed, supplied, leased and/or sold by the Defendants, FCA CANADA INC. and FCA US LLC, in Canada equipped with a 3.0L EcoDiesel engine with a defective high-pressure fuel injection pump incompatible with the lubricity of North American diesel fuel. The fuel pump has a fragile and unstable design, which causes metal parts to rub against each other such that the friction generates metal shavings that contaminate the fuel system, leading to catastrophic engine failure, all of which poses a real and substantial danger of harm or injury to vehicle occupants and damage to the vehicle’s fuel system and components. The Defendants,’ FCA CANADA INC.’s and FCA US LLC’s, recall remedy is inadequate to fix the Fuel Pump Defect and fails to fully reimburse putative Class Members of all out-of-pocket repair costs, including catastrophic failure and replacement of fuel system, engine component parts and/or the engine itself. The recall remedy did not remove the Fuel Pump Defect in the Affected Class Vehicles.
