A long-running class action lawsuit regarding Toyota diesel particulate filters isn’t over yet, with the car giant as well as affected owners currently appealing last year’s Federal Court ruling in the High Court of Australia. The High Court hearing is taking place today. The class action relates to a fault in the diesel particulate filters fitted to 264,170 examples of the HiLux, Prado and Fortuner built between October 2015 and April 2020.
This was subsequently reduced to 10 per cent by the Federal Court in March 2023 after Toyota filed an appeal, though it’s still estimated the payout to affected owners in the class action could total $1.3 billion. You can read more about what has previously transpired in the class action lawsuit here. Both Toyota and the owners in the class action lawsuit – the latter represented by Gilbert + Tobin – are appealing the 2023 Federal Court decision in the High Court.
