LG Washer Defects
Lieff Cabraser represented consumers who filed a class action lawsuit against LG charging that certain LG front-loading automatic washing machines are defective products. A Settlement was reached in the lawsuit, which alleged LG-brand front-loading washing machines had an undisclosed propensity to develop a mold and/or mold-related odor problem.
Owners who experienced a mold and/or mold-related odor problem, were entitled to compensation in the form of either (1) a cash payment of thirty-five ($35.00) in the form of a check, or (2) a Washer Rebate Certificate worth one hundred and five dollars ($105.00), redeemable the purchase of a new washer from an authorized washer retailer.
