A settlement has been proposed in a class action lawsuit alleging Oxnard Automobile Exchange Inc. and Access Finance Inc. (formerly known as Trifish Finance Inc.) used tracking devices to locate vehicles in violation of California law.
If you purchased a vehicle in California after May 13, 2009 that was financed by Access Finance Inc. or Trifish Finance Inc., and the vehicle was equipped with an electronic tracking device that allowed the companies to locate the vehicle, you may be entitled to benefits from this class action settlement.
The defendants deny any wrongdoing and claim that they did not track vehicles for an improper purpose. However, they have agreed to a class action settlement to avoid the expense and uncertainty of ongoing litigation.
The auto tracking device class action settlement was preliminarily approved on Dec. 15, 2015.
Under the terms of the proposed class action settlement, the defendants will compensate eligible Class Members for the cost of inspection and removal of any tracking device found in their vehicles.
