What happened
This is a proposed class action against Bridgestone Corporation, apparently concerning alleged antitrust violations involving passenger vehicle replacement tires. The docket indicates the case is part of multidistrict litigation over replacement tires antitrust claims, and consumers who purchased such tires could plausibly be class members. These are allegations in a newly filed case, not proven facts and not a settlement.
Do you qualify?
No settlement exists yet, so there is nothing to file and no class definition to check. If the case settles, the settlement will define exactly who qualifies — watch this case and we'll let you know.
How to file
