Miguel R. v. FCA US LLC

Alameda County

We represented Miguel R., a resident of Alameda County, California in his claims against Chrysler arising from his purchase of a used 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee.  Miguel purchased the SUV, hoping to take it on trips and use it for adventures, not realizing that even before he purchased it the vehicle suffered a series of electrical issues and recalls.  Shortly after his purchase of the vehicle, the Grand Cherokee suffered a series of electrical and engine issues and needed even more recalls. Later, the vehicle suffered engine failures and ultimately had to be traded in by Miguel for another Jeep Grand Cherokee.  Even though he no longer owned the vehicle, we were able to get Miguel R. all of his money back, plus a civil penalty equal to approximately double what he paid for the vehicle. Our services came at no cost to Miguel R. – like all of our other clients, the automaker paid Miguel’s legal bills.
