A new class action lawsuit against Whirlpool Corporation addresses refrigerators alleged to have defective wiring that compromises the appliance’s functionality and safety.

If you bought a Whirlpool refrigerator, you likely did because the company has an outstanding reputation of making quality products. But, according to the plaintiffs, the wires, designed to flex with the opening and closing of the refrigerator doors, are prone to fraying or breaking prematurely due to the use of substandard materials.

This defect, often manifesting within a few years of purchase, significantly hinders the refrigerator’s performance by disabling critical features such as ice makers and water dispensers—key selling points emphasized in Whirlpool’s marketing materials. Furthermore, the plaintiffs highlight an alarming safety concern: the risk of electrocution or fire stemming from exposed, live wires, a danger exacerbated by the presence of water and known to refrigerator manufacturers like Whirlpool.

The Lenovo class action lawsuit alleges that Lenovo sold Flex 5 and Yoga 730 laptops with a defect in the display that significantly impairs the laptops’ functionality.

Despite sending his Flex 5 laptop to Lenovo for repairs twice during the warranty period, the plaintiff, along with many other purchasers, found that the display issues persisted after the repairs. Lenovo was accused of suggesting ineffective repair methods or failing to address the core issue causing the defect.

The lawsuit claims Lenovo knew about this defect but continued to market and sell these laptops, highlighting their high-resolution displays and versatile screen positions as major selling points.

The goal of surgical intervention with vaginal mesh is to repair and bolster these weakened muscles.
