About Nissan Altima Rusting Floorboards

A class action complaint was filed on April 14, 2015 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois alleging the model years 2002-2006 Nissan Altimas contain a design flaw as a result of poor flooring pan design which may stop water from draining causing the floorboards to rust, corrode and peel away from underneath the vehicle. The lawsuit contends that this corrosion is premature and poses a risk to the owner’s safety.

Holes in the floorboards can cause safety threats including allowing carbon monoxide and exhaust fumes into the interior of the car, drivers’ feet being stuck in the floorboards and inadequate support for car seats. It is often the mechanics that spot this issue while performing routine maintenance the vehicles.

Despite these possible safety risks to the public, neither Nissan nor the NHTSA have referred to this issue as a defect or a risk to the public’s safety. Nissan has also not issued any safety recalls or offered to rectify the situation with monetary relief to those affected by this defect.

About Viagra, Levitra and Cialis

Viagra (sildenafil), Levitra (vardenafil) and Cialis (tadalafil) are used to treat erectile dysfunction. An April 2014 study published in JAMA Internal Medicine reported that men using Viagra have an increased risk of developing melanoma, the most dangerous and aggressive type of skin cancer. The study also found there is an even greater risk for those taking Levitra and Cialis because the active ingredient in those drugs remain in the body for longer periods of time.

The Harvard School of Public Health analyzed data from 2000-2010 involving close to 26,000 men who had used Viagra. During this time, there were over 3,500 cases of skin cancer reported. Of these cases, 142 were melanoma, 580 were squamous cell and 3,040 were basal cell carcinoma. The data showed that the men who used Viagra were subject to an 84% increased risk of developing melanoma than those who had not taken the drug. Levitra and Cialis work similar to Viagra and the drugs may also carry the same increased risks for the development of melanoma.

About Defective HVAC Units

Johnson Controls and York International, Goodman, Rheem, and Carrier and United Technologies, have each been named in class action lawsuits in federal court that accuse the companies of selling HVAC units that contain defective evaporator and/or condenser coils which caused refrigerant fluid to leak, defective thermal expansion valves or defective compressors.

The lawsuits contend that the purchasers or owners with these defective units have incurred damage resulting from the costs relating to replacement of the units, including diagnostics and labor, and increased utility costs. In addition, refrigerant leaks could lead to accumulation of mold, which would cause owners to incur substantial property damage and even personal injury, as well as additional costs relating to mold remediation.

Even if the HVAC manufacturers offer to cover the actual cost of the defective part under their parts warranty, these warranties are unconscionable as they purport to exclude the costs to diagnose the problem, cost of labor to replace the part, shipping costs, cost of replacement refrigerant, increased utility costs, as well as costs which may be incurred from mold caused by the leaking, faulty or inoperable units. These additional costs can run thousands of dollars.

Lumber Liquidators Lawsuits

Gilman Law LLP, a leading national law firm with over 40 years of experience protecting the rights of

shareholders and consumers, is continuing its investigation into reports that laminate flooring sold by

Lumber Liquidators and installed in millions of homes across the country is contaminated with

dangerous amounts of formaldehyde. The Firm has already filed a Lumber Liquidators lawsuit that,

among other things, claims the Company’s directors failed to comply with their fiduciary duties in

connection with applicable laws and regulations pertaining to formaldehyde emissions from composite

wood products. Gilman Law LLP is also offering free Lumber Liquidators lawsuit evaluations.

Lumber Liquidators is the nation’s largest retailer of hardwood flooring, the Company and its investors

stand to incur significant damages as a result of the concerns surrounding the Company’s laminate

flooring products. If you are among them, please contact Gilman Law LLP today to learn more about

filing a Lumber Liquidators lawsuit.

Gilman Law Fiduciary Duty Lawsuit

In March 2015, Gilman Law LLP filed a Lumber Liquidators derivative lawsuit against the Company’s

board of directors, including former CEO Robert Lynch, for allegedly breaching their fiduciary duties in

connection with their failure to oversee the operations of the Company as they relate to the

manufacture and sale of their wood laminate products, as well as the import and trade of illegally

sourced lumber from the Russian Far East in violation of the Lacey Act. In addition, the complaint

challenges the alleged unlawful insider selling of tens of millions of dollars of Lumber Liquidators stock

by certain members of the Board during a time when the stock was allegedly inflated due to a failure of

the Company’s management to properly disclose the activities of and accurate financial information

regarding the Company. The complaint, which is currently pending in Delaware Court of Chancery,

seeks damages on behalf of the Company arising from and incurred and to be incurred in connection

with pending federal securities lawsuits, consumer product liability lawsuits, and investigations by

various federal agencies, including arms of the U.S. Department of Justice.

Lumber Liquidators Products Liability Lawsuits

Lumber Liquidators has been named a defendant in dozens of product liability lawsuits involving its

laminate flooring products. This litigation began to grow after 60 Minutes aired a report focusing on the

excessive formaldehyde levels contained in certain laminate flooring Lumber Liquidators purchased

from manufacturers in China. Among other things, the report noted that certified testing of laminate

wood flooring purchased from Lumber Liquidators locations in Virginia, Florida, Texas, Illinois, and New

York revealed levels of formaldehyde that exceed those permitted by the California Air Resources Board

(CARB). In addition, 60 Minutes reported that employees at certain Chinese manufacturers “openly

admitted” that they use materials with higher levels of formaldehyde and falsely label Lumber

Liquidators’ laminate flooring as “CARB Phase 2 Compliant.”

At low levels, formaldehyde exposure can cause a number of serious health problems, including

respiratory issues, asthma, and irritation of the eyes, nose and throat. Higher levels of formaldehyde

have been linked to various types of cancer, including myeloid leukemia and nasopharyngeal cancer. 60

Minutes noted that children may be more susceptible to formaldehyde-related health issues, as they are

more likely to come into close contact with the Lumber Liquidators flooring.

Takata Issues Over-Due Airbag Recall, As Gilman Law LLP Urges Those Allegedly Injured by Exploding Airbags to Seek Legal Advice Now

Takata Issues Over-Due Airbag Recall, As Gilman Law LLP Urges Those Allegedly Injured by Exploding Airbags to Seek Legal Advice Now

Gilman Law LLP, a leading law firm representing the victims of defective automobiles and other

consumer products, is investigating Takata airbag lawsuits, following the recall of more than 34 million

vehicles outfitted with potentially defective and deadly airbags. According to the National Highway

Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), Takata airbags, which are installed in, among others, Honda,

Toyota, Ford, GM, and Nissan vehicles, can explode violently when they deploy, sending shrapnel flying

into a car’s passenger compartment. Such accidents have been tied to at least six deaths and more than

100 injuries.

Gilman Law LLP is currently representing a 40-year-old Massachusetts woman who lost an eye after the

Takata airbag in her Honda vehicle allegedly exploded upon deployment. Our attorneys believe that she

and other individuals who sustained injuries in similar accidents may be entitled to significant financial

compensation. However, potential claimants should be aware that all personal injury claims, including

Takata airbag lawsuits, are subject to strict statutes of limitations that vary by state. Individuals seeking

to file suit against Takata are urged to contact Gilman Law LLP today, TOLL FREE at 888-252-0048, to

ensure that their right to recovery is not placed in jeopardy.

The Takata Airbag Recall

According to the NHTSA, Takata has agreed to a national recall of certain types of frontal driver and

passenger side air bag inflators used in vehicles manufactured by BMW, Chrysler, Daimler Trucks, Ford,

General Motors, Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru and Toyota. These inflators were made with

a propellant that can degrade over, which could cause the airbag to explode upon deployment. Faulty

Takata airbags have been blamed for six deaths worldwide, and more than 100 injuries.

The New York Times reported on May 19th that Takata was aware for over a decade that ammonium

nitrate, the explosive material used in its airbags, was sensitive to moisture and temperature swings. As

early as 2000, consumers filed complaints with the NHTSA suggesting that Takata airbags were

rupturing. As awareness of the problem grew at Takata, company officials ordered tests in 2004 that

showed signs of defects. But the test results were never reported to federal safety regulators.

According to Gilman Law LLP, alleged victims of Takata airbag injuries may be entitled to recover

damages for:

Takata Airbag Lawsuit

Past and future medical expenses
Physical pain and suffering
Mental anguish and emotional distress
Past and future lost wages
Wrongful death for fatalities caused by exploding Takata airbags
Punitive damages, if it is found that Takata or others engaged in egregious misconduct

Gilman Law LLP is providing complimentary Takata airbag lawsuit consultations to anyone who was

seriously injured due to an exploding airbag. For more information, please contact Gilman Law LLP today
