Recall vs. class action settlement — what's the difference?
A recall is a safety action: the company repairs, replaces, or refunds the product (see the steps above) to remove the danger. It's free, and you deal directly with the company or the CPSC — not with us.
A class action settlement is a separate legal process that pays consumers money for harm a product caused. Recalls and product defects sometimes lead to class actions later — but a settlement only exists once a lawsuit is filed and resolved.
Want to know if there's money to claim? Browse our directory of open class action settlements or see whether there's a class action against Amazon, or use Class Action Buddy free — it tracks new settlements and alerts you the moment one opens for a product you own, then auto-fills the claim form for you to review and submit.
