Hagens Berman, the law firm that represented Toyota owners in a class-action lawsuit over the decline in vehicles’ values and other issues, said the total value of that settlement alone was likely to be between $1.2bn and $1.4bn.
代表丰田车主的律师事务所Hagens Berman表示,单单这项和解的总价值可能在12亿美元至14亿美元之间。丰田车主此前就汽车价值下降等问题,向丰田提起集体诉讼。
The settlement follows a series of incidents starting in 2009 where Toyota vehicles, including its popular Prius hybrid, appeared to have accelerated against drivers’ wishes. Toyota insisted throughout that there was nothing fundamentally wrong with the electronic throttle control systems that had been implicated in many of the incidents, which in some cases resulted in vehicles’ speeding down highways with drivers unable to stop. It reiterated that stance in its press release announcing the settlement.
在从2009年起发生的一系列事故中,丰田汽车(包括其广受欢迎的普锐斯混合动力车)似乎都出现了无故加速的问题。丰田一直坚称,它的电子节气阀控制系统基本上没有问题,尽管多起事故似乎都与这一系统有关。在一些事故中,汽车在高速路上飞奔而无法停下来。丰田在宣布达成和解的资讯稿中重申了这一立常
Hagens Berman said the settlement included $250m in payments to compensate former owners who sold their vehicles between September 2009 and December 2010. Another $250m would compensate current Toyota owners ineligible for the brake-override system that the carmaker has devised to prevent future incidents.
