Hey What about the Class Action Law suit

[Mr. Paul]

Ok anyone going to turn in their cards and get money? I am not going to do it because I just don't feel like anything was done wrong to me. Not going to line some tort lawyers pockets.

This lawsuit has been going on for around six years, Personally I think it is a joke and some lawyers way to make some money. Equip. mfg's have been marketing this way for years. The last Briggs service school I was at in Febuary they said they were spending way too much $$$$ on there legal dept so all involved wanted to settle. I threw all of the cards we received in the trash. I would hope that others will do the same..

What I this is funny now is the fact people are complaining that engines don't have hp ratings on them. Some engines have torque ratings that don't mean anything to most people, or no rating other that cc engine size which is even more confusing to customers. The only people that are going to have a favorable outcome will be the lawyers.

I have seen the lawsuit. The only people that will make any money is the lawyers. We will all pay more in the end for our mowers to make up for the losses in a lawsuit.

I started to reply but I just get thinking about it. We are all paying too much for our purchases because of greedy lawyers and consumers:thumbdown:

I don't think I'll participate but it's not because I don't want to. I just don't have the receipts anymore. If I did, I would claim my money because the Sears mowers I got with the Briggs & Stratton engines on them were a piece of junk. I thought I had just gotten a bad one the first time so I went back when the first one blew up and got a bigger one with more horsepower (supposedly). I didn't even do the job the first and smaller one did. I kept trusting Sears to fix the thing and they would fix it with (exaggeration here) bailing wire and twine. It finally went out of warrenty and we wound up with TWO pieces of junk that didn't work. :thumbdown:

Don't need receipts just need the serial number.

I am sure he is referring to the suit that mfr's misrepresented engine horse power. Rediculous in my opinion. I tossed my cards as well.
