Associated
Press, "Correction on Ford
Explorer Rollover Dangers Settlement"
In
a November 28, 2007 story about the settlement
of class-action lawsuits involving the Ford Explorer, The
Associated Press erroneously reported that
the settlements end all the outstanding rollover-related
lawsuits against the automotive company. The
settlements end the class-action lawsuits brought
by Explorer owners who said their vehicles had
lost value because of their perceived danger.
They do not end pending personal injury and wrongful
death lawsuits involving the Explorer, plaintiffs'
attorneys and Ford Motor Co. said.
A proposed settlement in a massive class-action lawsuit brought in Sacramento against the Ford Motor Co. would give 1 million Explorer owners in four states the opportunity to claim vouchers toward the purchase of a new Ford vehicle. More...
Ford Motor
Co has agreed to settle class-action litigation
covering plaintiffs in four states who claimed
its Explorer sport utility vehicles were prone

fair and reasonable and in the best in interests
of our customers and our shareholders," Ford
spokeswoman Kristen Kinley said. More...
