2012 Chevrolet Equinox MyLink Class Action Lawsuit

By Matt O'Donnell

 

2012 Chevrolet EquinoxGeneral Motors has been hit by a class action lawsuit claiming it advertised and sold the 2012 Chevrolet Equinox as containing the “MyLink” technology system, even though not all of them did.

Plaintiff Michael Brewer alleges in the Equinox MyLink class action lawsuit that GM deceptively advertised that the 2012 Chevy Equinox came with a “cutting edge” information technology system called “MyLink,” but that some 2012 models sold in late 2011 and early this year did not have it. He is seeking damages and restitution for owners who did not get MyLink as promised.


“Throughout 2011, GM widely and publicly advertised and marketed its Chevrolet MyLink system and specifically represented to the general public that MyLink would be available in the fall of 2011 in connection with 2012 model year Equinox vehicles. However, it appears GM jumped the gun and marketed a system it was not yet ready to mass-produce and/or install on 2012 Equinox vehicles until a few short months ago. Yet GM did not – and has not ever – disclosed to Plaintiff, Class Members or the general public these material facts about timing and availability of the MyLink system,” the class action lawsuit states.

The Chevy Equinox MyLink class action lawsuit is brought on behalf of all California purchasers of model year 2012 Chevrolet Equinox vehicles who purchased their vehicles between January 1, 2011 and March 31, 2012, and did not have the MyLink system advertised by GM.

It is seeking injunctive relief, damages, restitution and more for alleged violation of the Consumers Legal Remedies Act and unlawful, unfair, fraudulent business acts and practices.

The case is Michael Brewer v. General Motors, LLC, et al., Case No. 37-2012-100642-CU-CO-CTL, Superior Court of the State of California, County of San Diego.

How do I join this lawsuit? I purchased a 2LT 2012 Equinox in May of 2012, but Mylink was not in my car as well. Can someone please tell me how I can become a part of this, I feel I was deceived as well.
