Ford Facing Lawsuit In “Limited Edition” Dispute
Ford Motor Co. is facing a class-action lawsuit filed by customers who purchased the “limited edition” 2007 Roush Stage 3 BlackJack, after it was discovered the model was not so “limited” after all. Ford advertised that only one hundred of these models would be made, charging consumers the premium price of $59,000. The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan, alleges Ford and Roush Performance Products Inc. manufactured one hundred additional cars in 2008, making the vehicles not as unique as advertised. At least one hundred people are involved in the lawsuit, seeking a jury trial and damages of more than $12 million.
