Nelda Sue Butler and Donald W. Butler v. DaimlerChrysler, et al. 11/14/00

Nelda Sue Butler and Donald W. Butler v. DaimlerChrysler, et al., Superior Court of Colquitt County, Georgia (11/14/00)

Plaintiffs proved that, as far back as 1978, Chrysler knew the rear-mounted tank was vulnerable and needed to be moved for safety but that Chrysler delayed moving the tank for almost twenty years, until the 1998 model year. At the time of Plaintiff's wreck, Chrysler was already selling a redesigned '98 model with the tank having been moved to a mid-ship's location, which Chrysler's own documents admitted was a move to a "protected" location. The amount of settlement is confidential at Defendant's request.
