July 20 2006
A class action lawsuit was filed on April 29, 2005 regarding General Electric's defective refrigerators -- Model 304 GE and Hotpoint refrigerator. On December 15, 2005 GE agreed to settle the suit and began a notification process to all past and present owners of the defective refrigerators by mail on January 13, 2006. A Fairness Hearing that was scheduled for April has been extended to August 21, 2006.
The original deadline for submitting claim forms has been extended from April 13, 2006 to September 4, 2006.
Claimants can register for any of the following benefits:
reimbursement for previously paid repairs;
reimbursement to people who had already replaced their defective refrigerators at their own expense;
registration for a one-year free extended warranty for moisture-related repairs;
free replacement of refrigerators that had three or more previous moisture-related repairs and continue to exhibit moisture problems.
