Toyota Rebuffed by U.S. Supreme Court on Prius Brake Lawsuits
The U.S. Supreme Court turned away a Toyota Motor Corp. appeal that sought to force arbitration of California lawsuits over the brakes in Prius cars.
The justices today left intact a federal appeals court decision that said Toyota couldn’t enforce the arbitration clauses in its dealers’ purchase agreements with customers.
The case is Toyota Motor v. Choi, 12-1230.
