Class Action Against General Motors of Canada Ltd.

gmcanadianclassaction.ca

SGM has joined a national team of plaintiffs’ counsel pursuing a national class action against General Motors of Canada Limited and General Motors Corporation. To date, proceedings have been filed in most Canadian jurisdictions. In Ontario, two actions have been filed: Jamieson v. General Motors of Canada Limited and Stewart v. General Motors of Canada Limited and General Motors Corporation.

SGM’s Louis Sokolov and Heidi Rubin are counsel in the Jamieson action.

Summary

The claim is based upon the allegation that certain GM vehicles manufactured between 1995 and 2003 contained engineswith a defective Intake Manifold Gasket ("IMG") part. The IMG regulates the flow of air and fuel into the cylinder. It is alleged that the IMG in the vehicles in question degraded prematurely causing coolant to leak into the engine and resulting in engine damage.
