Starter problems? Class action lawsuit?

https://carbuzz.com/news/angry-chevy...critical-issue

My Nephew sent me this, first I’ve heard of it?

I figure if it was critical I would have already seen something here?

Anybody got the scoop?

I made this thread yesterday and it got moved into a sub forum to die a quick death.

class action lawsuits are for a lawyer to get rich and not the people harmed.

I got like $120 from AMD for misrepresenting their 4 core processors as 8 core. I also got a small check from Nvidia for their laptop GPU lawsuit years ago. The payouts in class action suits are ridiculous...except for the lawyers of course.

I think I got something in the mail about this the other day. Ceramic coat your long tube headers and forget about it, that's what I did.

Like I said, hadn’t heard much about it and was curious.

If threads got moved then I may have missed them for sure?

If anybody has any starter problems let me know? Thanks!

My starter was sluggish during the summer back when my car had shorty headers on it. After I removed them and installed ceramic coated long tubes I have been fortunate enough to have not had any further starter issues.

Sorry, I was just venting about the site, not you. The only thing that matters is that the news gets out about this.

I saw this today. I submitted my contact info to the attorney a few hours ago. I have a phone call with them tomorrow morning to see if I'm eligible. I did change my starter about 1.5 yr ago. I did it my self so I could probably find the receipt and submit it.
