Potential Class Action Suit Over Samsung’s Response To Recalled Washers

Last November, after several owners of Samsung washing machines complained about violent, almost explosive, vibrations, Samsung recalled nearly 3 million machines, promising to fix the devices or provide folks with refunds. Now, three months later, the company is on the receiving end of a potential class action after one customer says Samsung’s multiple attempts to fix his machine have failed. In the lawsuit [PDF], filed in federal court in Oklahoma, the owner of a Samsung washing machine claims the company purposefully failed to fix his machine in order to induce him to buy another product from the company.
