Ford announced yesterday that it will settle a class action lawsuit filed against the company covering plaintiffs in four states — California, Connecticut, Illinois and Texas. The lawsuit claimed Ford’s Explorer — model years 1991 through 2001 — was prone to rollover accidents.
According to the Detroit Free Press, the settlement applies to about 1 million people in those four states.
The settlement allows vehicle owners to claim a $500 voucher towards the purchase of a new Explorer or a $300 voucher towards the purchase of any Ford , Lincoln or Mercury product.
