OVERVIEW OF THE CASE AND ONGOING INVESTIGATION
Stueve Siegel Hanson LLP is lead counsel in a lawsuit against Hyundai Motor America alleging that Hyundai marketed and sold vehicles with defective flywheel systems. We represent residents of various states, including California, who purchased a new or used manual-transmission 2003 Hyundai Tiburon. The case (SA CV 06-345 AHS) is proceeding in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. The order certifying a nationwide class action against Hyundai was granted in December 2008.
After purchasing their Tiburons, plaintiffs each experienced problems shifting into and between gears and spent thousands of dollars in replacement parts and repairs.

UPDATE: On January 22, 2010, Plaintiffs filed a motion seeking approval of a settlement with Hyundai that if approved, would privde up to 100% reimbursement for Hyundai Tiburon owners who paid for repairs related to failures of the vehicle's flywheel system. If approved, notice related to the settlement will be provided to customers by April 2010.
