Class Action Launched Against Samsung Over Note 7 Debacle
The ongoing fallout from Samsung’s Note 7 debacle now includes a possible class-action lawsuit against the company in the U.S., according to a report by digital Trends.
Three former Samsung Note 7 users in New Jersey filed the suit a week after the Korean company ended production of the handset after faulty batteries caused more than 100 units to overheat and catch fire, reports Trevor Mogg.
The suit focuses on Samsung’s handling of the recall, which the plaintiffs claim caused them to go without a phone for several weeks while still having to pay for the device and plan charges, Motherboard reported on Tuesday.
