(WHTM) — Owners of certain Chevrolet and GMC trucks can claim cash from a $35 million settlement.

According to JND Legal Administration, a proposed settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit against General Motors in regards to a defective high-pressure fuel injection pump known as the “CP4.”

Plaintiffs of this lawsuit claim that 2011-2016 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra trucks with a Duramax diesel 6.6L V8 LML engine were equipped with the faulty “CP4,” which they say is unreasonably fragile and susceptible to catastrophic failure.

Although General Motors denies any wrongdoing, the two parties have agreed to the $35 million settlement to avoid costs, risk and delays associated with further litigation.

To be included in this settlement, you had to have purchased a 2011-2016 Chevrolet Silverado or GMC Sierra diesel truck equipped with 6.6L Duramax engine and Bosch “CP4” high-pressure diesel fuel pumps from a GM-authorized dealer in California, Florida, Illinois, Iowa, New York, Pennsylvania or Texas from March 1, 2010, through Sept. 13, 2024.

Moving forward, the court will hold a final approval hearing Jan. 21. The deadline to file a claim is six months after the final hearing, which could be as early as July 21.

The estimated payment range for the settlement is $400 to $12,700.
