Default Water Pump Class Action

Anyone else here in the Q5 forum receive water pump class action documentation? I received paperwork yesterday and plan to submit a claim.

Who sent you the paperwork? Audi or VW?

'*Not every such model and model year vehicle is covered by this Settlement (i.e., a Settlement Class Vehicle). The Settlement Class Vehicles are determined by specific Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs). You can look up whether your vehicle is a Settlement Class Vehicle by typing your vehicle’s VIN, where indicated, in the VIN Lookup Portal HERE."

So did you have a water pump failure at some point and then paid for the repair yourself, outside of warranty coverage?

Yes, we had the water pump replaced back in 2022 @ approximately 61k miles.

It was not sent by the Volkswagen Group of America. I was sent by a private consultant group, who is looking to get paid very well if the suit is approved..

VAG is against this proposal.

I didn't know VAG is against the proposal. Is that in the paperwork they sent out?
