Century Automotive $1,075,000 Call Recording Settlement

If you participated in one or more inbound or outbound telephone calls on your cellular or cordless telephone with Century Automotive’s employee(s) or representative(s) between January 3, 2022, and January 3, 2023, you may be eligible to claim a monetary award from a class action settlement.

Century Automotive Service Corporation has agreed to pay $1,075,000 to settle a class action lawsuit for allegedly recording telephone calls without notifying the participants.

Can I Claim an Award?

To be eligible for an award, you must have participated in one or more inbound or outbound telephone calls on your cellular or cordless telephone with Century Automotive’s employee(s) or representative(s) between January 3, 2022, and January 3, 2023, and may have had your call recorded without being notified.

If you received a notice of this proposed settlement by mail or email, Century Automotive has records indicating that you are a member of the Class, and you are automatically entitled to receive a Settlement Payment. If you did not receive notice of this proposed settlement by mail or email, you might still be a member of the Class, but you will need to submit a Claim Form.

Direct Notice Class Members: Those for whom a U.S. postal mailing address can be identified either in Century Automotive’s internal records or through a “reverse lookup” by the Claims Administrator based on available cellular phone numbers in Century Automotive’s records, without any Claim Form requirement.
Email Notice Class Members: Those for whom Century Automotive is able to identify an email address and who provide a current mailing address in response to the Email Notice no later than August 5, 2024.
Other Class Members: Those who did not receive the Direct Notice or Email Notice but otherwise submit a valid and timely Claim Form postmarked no later than August 5, 2024.

What Can I Get From The Settlement?

Century Automotive has agreed to create a non-reversionary Settlement Fund of $1,075,000. After class action administration fees and costs, service payment to the Class Representative, and Class Counsel’s attorneys’ fees and costs are deducted, the remaining amount will be divided up equally amongst all eligible Class Members.

Is Proof Required to Claim the Reward?

Not applicable. The Claims Administrator already has the necessary information for Direct Notice Class Members and Email Notice Class Members who respond with their current mailing address.
