Quoted from the official notice. Read the notice for the full definition.
Our notes: The class is customers who received ResistAll/EnviroGuard with their vehicle purchase from Adams Toyota between August 17, 2019 and December 7, 2026 (the Settlement Agreement says 'and the final approval hearing', which is December 7, 2026). The only people left out are those who opted out by October 20, 2026. Claimants are sorted into three Recovery Groups: Group 1, price of ResistAll/EnviroGuard shown as a separate line item in the deal paperwork; Group 2, price not shown separately; Group 3, current or former Adams Toyota employees, their family members who got discounted pricing, customers who made a ResistAll/EnviroGuard warranty claim, and customers who no longer own the vehicle. The claim form asks about employee status, warranty claims and current ownership, and requires proof of continuous and current ownership.
