Court Certifies Class In Viking Window Defects Class Action
September 11, 2009
Sacramento, CA -- Judge Frank Damrell, Jr., of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California, granted class certification to all current and past owners of residential properties in California in which Viking 3000 windows made between 1991 and 1999 are installed. The plaintiffs allege that the windows contain design and manufacture defects due to improper sealant used on the lower corners of the aluminum windows, causing them to leak. Plaintiffs also allege that Viking knew or should have known that the windows would fail and nonetheless marketed the windows with a lifetime warranty.
