Hyundai Theta Engine Settlement
Consumers who experienced problems with their Hyundai’s Theta engine may be able to benefit from a recent class action settlement.
The Class includes individuals who bought or leased any of the following vehicles: 2011-2018 and certain 2019 Hyundai Sonata, 2013–2018 and certain 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport, and 2014–2015, 2018, and certain 2019 Hyundai Tucson vehicles equipped with or replaced with a genuine Theta II 2.0-liter or 2.4-liter gasoline direct injection engine within OEM specifications.

Plaintiffs in a class action lawsuit claimed some Hyundai vehicles are defective and prone to engine problems, including seizing, stalling, engine failure and engine fire.
Several types of relief are available, including reimbursement for repairs and items such as rental cars; compensation for reduced trade-in value and engine fires; and rebates on the purchase of a replacement vehicle, among other things.

Claims for property damage benefits must be filed by Aug. 23, 2021.
Kia Engine Failure Class Action Settlement
Hyundai has agreed to resolve Kia engine failure class action claims in a settlement deal benefiting Kia owners whose vehicles are allegedly equipped with defective engines.

AT&T Unlimited Data Throttling $12M Class Action Settlement
AT&T customers with unlimited data plans may be eligible to claim up to $23 under a $12 million settlement agreement with the company over alleged data throttling.

USAA Car Insurance PIP Coverage Class Action Lawsuit Settlement
Certain policyholders with USAA car insurance and health care providers in Washington may be able to benefit from a class action lawsuit settlement.
Two Subclasses are included in this settlement:
The Insured Subclass will consist of anyone who was insured under the personal injury protection (PIP) coverage of a Washington automobile insurance policy issued by any of the USAA Entities — defendants United Services Automobile Association (USAA) and USAA Casualty Insurance Co., and USAA General Indemnity Co., and Garrison Property and Casualty Insurance Co. — received medical, health care, or rehabilitation services, or medication or equipment, from one or more members of the Provider Subclass, and who made a claim under the PIP coverage of that policy, submitted (or whose health care provider submitted) to the USAA entities a bill for such services or products, and who had that bill reduced by a reason code stating that the billed amount exceeded the reasonable amount for the service provided from May 30, 2015, through Jan. 22, 2021.
Members of the Class certified by the federal court in Krista Peoples v. United Services Automobile Association, et al., Case No. 2:18-cv-01173- RSL in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington, also are part of this subclass.
The Provider Subclass is made up of any Washington health care providers who provided medical, health care, or rehabilitation services, or medication or equipment to a person insured under the PIP coverage of a Washington automobile insurance policy issued by one of the USAA entities, and who submitted to the USAA entities bills for such services or products pursuant to the PIP coverage of that insurance policy, who received from the USAA entities as payment less than the full amount of the charges billed, and whose bill was reduced by a reason code stating that the billed amount exceeded the reasonable amount for the service provided May 30, 2015, through Jan. 22, 2021.
Plaintiffs in two class action lawsuits had challenged RF reductions made to health care bills that were submitted for payment in Washington under USAA car insurance PIP coverage.
While the exact amount of each Class Member’s payment has yet to be determined, the payments will be calculated as 140 percent of the RF Reduction on each charge submitted on non-exhausted claims and 100 percent of the RF Reduction on each charge submitted on exhausted claims.
The deadline to file a claim is Aug. 11, 2021.

A class action lawsuit alleged Pressed Juicery falsely advertises the Greens Juices as containing green vegetables as primary ingredients when the first ingredients are actually sugary fruit juices, such as apple or pineapple.
Class Members submitting a valid claim form can receive up to $1 per Pressed Juicery Green Juices for up to 10 items purchased during the Class Period. That amount could be adjusted depending on the number of claims filed.
File a claim by Aug. 9, 2021.
