Businesses should be aware that the December 31, 2019 claim deadline is approaching in over $1.2 billion in auto parts settlements.

Dec. 5, 2019—Lawsuits allege that defendants fixed the price of auto parts, causing millions of consumers and businesses from around the country to pay more for certain new or leased vehicles and replacement parts, according to In re Automotive Parts Antitrust Litigation, MDL No. 2311.
