ZF-TRW Airbag Sensor Litigation

Common questions

How much does the ZF-TRW Airbag Sensor Litigation pay?

The total settlement fund is $62M. Actual amounts depend on how many valid claims are filed — most settlements divide a fixed fund pro rata, so a higher claim rate means a smaller individual check. An "up to" figure is a cap, not a guarantee.

Is the ZF-TRW Airbag Sensor Litigation notice real, or a scam?

Accord Settlement Administration (based on settlement website URLs) is the settlement administrator for this case. Claims are filed at acusettlement.com. Filing a class action claim is always free — no legitimate settlement charges you to claim, and no administrator will ask for payment, a gift card, or your full Social Security number by email or text. If a notice asks for any of those, it is not from the administrator. When in doubt, ignore the link you were sent and go to the official settlement website directly.

How long until I get paid from the ZF-TRW Airbag Sensor Litigation?

Class action payouts typically take 12 to 24 months after the claim deadline, and longer if the settlement is appealed. Payments cannot be issued until the court grants final approval and any appeals are resolved.

What happens if I do nothing?

You receive no payment, and in most class actions you also give up the right to sue ZF-TRW and various auto manufacturers (Toyota, Mitsubishi, Hyundai, Kia) separately over these same claims.
