Important Dates & Deadlines

Ask to get out of the Settlement. You get no Settlement benefits, but keep your right to file your own lawsuit against Nissan.

Remain a Class Member and tell the Court what you do not like about the Settlement. You will still be bound by the Settlement if the Court approves it. If you want your own attorney to represent you, you must pay for him or her yourself. Your attorney must file a Notice of Appearance.

You do not have to do anything to be included in the Settlement Class, but to be eligible for reimbursement of qualifying transmission repairs, you must submit a Claim Form by the deadline.

The Court has scheduled a Fairness Hearing to be held on July 18, 2025 at 1:00 p.m. Central Time, to decide whether certification of the Settlement Class is proper; whether the Settlement is fair, adequate, and reasonable; and whether the Settlement should be finally approved. In addition, the Court will consider Co-Lead Class Counsel’s application for an award of attorneys’ fees and reimbursement of expenses. The Court is located at the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, Nashville Division, Fred D. Thompson Federal Building & Courthouse, 719 Church Street, Room 5C, Nashville, TN 37203. The Hearing may be rescheduled to a later time without further notice. You may, but do not have to, attend the Hearing. If the Court grants final approval to the Settlement and the time to appeal has expired, the Settlement will become final and benefits will be paid or made available to the Class.
