How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding that plaintiff had shown commonality where all class vehicles suffered same “geometry defect in the vehicles’ alignment”
  • holding that common questions predominated with respect to plaintiffs’ claims under state consumer protection laws because the merits of the claims did “not overlap with the predominance inquiry”
  • holding that a putative class action satisfied predominance because the allegations were susceptible to proof by generalized evidence
  • concluding that plaintiffs demonstrated a common “defect 7 exists in the alignment geometry, not the tires,” despite evidence of “tire wear due to 8 individual factors”
  • concluding that “[t]ypicality 22 1 the defect” and plaintiffs, “like the rest of the class, may have a viable claim regardless of the manifestation of the defect”
  • noting that a geometric defect in vehicle alignment was alleged to be present in each class member's car
