986 IMS class action law suite - Porsche loses (kind-a)

I don't get it. They include 2001-2005 vehicles, but exclude vehicles that are more than 10 years old. Me and my 2001 are left high and dry. Oh well :/

It would make me very happy and my wallet.

In their defense, that means the car did make at least 10 years

No, it excludes vehicles that didn't have a failure within ten years of being put in service. You could have a 2001 that had a failure in 2005 that would be covered, even though the car is over 12 years old today.

Ahh. Well. I guess that makes sense.

Interesting that we now have some failure rates for single row IMS bearings.
