About FCA US Class Actions in Florida
Before you read on: the FCA US settlement described below has closed. This section explains what it was about and who was covered, which is still worth knowing — but it cannot be claimed now. See settlements that are open today.
FCA US, now part of Stellantis, faces significant exposure in Florida due to the state's large automotive market and substantial truck ownership. Florida operates under the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act (FDUTPA), which provides consumers with broader protections than federal law and allows for attorney fees recovery in successful cases. The state's Lemon Law also covers vehicles with substantial defects that impair use, value, or safety. FCA US maintains a strong Florida presence with over 200 dealerships statewide and regional parts distribution centers in Tampa and Orlando. The Dodge Ram brand is particularly popular among Florida's construction and agriculture sectors. Florida residents participating in class action settlements must ensure their claims are filed within specified deadlines, which can be as short as 60 days after settlement approval. The state's no-fault insurance laws don't impact product liability claims, but Florida's comparative negligence rules may affect individual damage calculations. Florida courts have jurisdiction over FCA US through the company's substantial business activities in the state, making local filing often advantageous for residents.
FCA US Settlements in Florida: FAQs
Can Florida residents participate in the Dodge Ram 1500 EcoDiesel settlement if they bought their truck used?
Yes, Florida residents who purchased used 2014-2016 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel trucks are eligible for settlement benefits as long as they owned the vehicle during the relevant time period. The settlement covers both original purchasers and subsequent owners who experienced emissions-related issues.
Does Florida's Lemon Law affect FCA US class action settlements?
Florida's Lemon Law operates independently of class action settlements and covers vehicles with substantial defects that cannot be repaired after reasonable attempts. Participating in an FCA US class action settlement typically doesn't prevent you from pursuing Lemon Law remedies for separate qualifying defects.
How does Florida's FDUTPA law impact FCA US settlement amounts?
Florida's Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act can provide additional remedies beyond federal class action settlements, including treble damages and attorney fees. However, most class action settlements require you to release FDUTPA claims as part of the settlement agreement.
Tips for Florida Residents Filing FCA US Claims
Florida residents filing FCA US claims should gather all vehicle documentation including purchase agreements, service records, and warranty repairs. Submit claims before deadlines, which are strictly enforced regardless of state law extensions. Consider consulting a Florida attorney familiar with FDUTPA before accepting settlements, as state law may provide superior remedies. Keep detailed records of all communications with FCA US or settlement administrators. Florida's broad discovery rules can help gather evidence if pursuing individual litigation. Residents should verify their eligibility carefully, as Florida's large used car market means many vehicles may have complex ownership histories affecting settlement participation.
