Settlement checks to Cat engine owners issued for wrong amount

The company handling settlement payouts to Caterpillar engine owners has said it will be reissuing checks to former ACERT engine owners who were part of a $60 million class action settlement reached with the company in 2016. According to the website established for members of the class, which include anyone who owned or leased a truck with a Caterpillar ACERT engine manufactured between 2006 and 2010, a calculation error resulted in checks issued for the wrong amount.

Court documents indicate the checks shorted class members owed funds from the settlement. The settlement website says a stop payment has been issued for the checks and that the settlement administrator is “working to resolve this matter and promptly reissue settlement checks.”

A letter mailed to class members April 6 states that checks could be reissued within two weeks.
