What happened
A proposed class action was filed against FCA US LLC, apparently alleging property damage from a product defect. The docket reflects that the class allegations were later dropped, leaving only individual state-law claims, which were dismissed without prejudice for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, and the case has been closed.
Do you qualify?
