Consumer Protection

In December 2023, Lieff Cabraser and co-counsel filed a federal RICO lawsuit on behalf of consumers across the U.S. alleging that Ram and engine manufacturer Cummins Inc. violated emissions limits by installing emissions cheating devices on almost a million Ram 2500 and the Ram 3500 trucks. In separate proceedings with the U.S. government and California, Cummins agreed to pay $1.675 billion — the largest single Clean Air Act penalty of all time — to resolve similar allegations.

Lieff Cabraser previously litigated and settled a nationwide class action lawsuit against Fiat Chrysler for similar emissions cheating in over 104,000 diesel vehicles, including the Ram 1500. You can learn more about that case here.

If you own or lease a 2013-2023 Ram, we urge you to contact a consumer protection lawyer at Lieff Cabraser today to learn about your rights and potential recovery for the alleged Ram emissions fraud.

Lieff Cabraser has been fighting successfully for consumer and vehicle owner rights across the U.S. for over 50 years, including our representation of hundreds of thousands of Volkswagen vehicle owners in emissions fraud lawsuits that led to historic settlements valued at over $14 billion. At its 2018 awards ceremony, the California Daily Journal named Lieff Cabraser attorneys Elizabeth J. Cabraser, Kevin R. Budner, Phong-Chau Nguyen, and Wilson M. Dunlavey as recipients of the 2018 California Lawyer of the Year (CLAY) Award for their work on the Volkswagen “Clean Diesel” Emissions Fraud MDL. The CLAY awards are given annually to outstanding California practitioners “whose extraordinary work and cases had a major impact on the law.”
