Default Received "unintended acceleration" settlement check -- anyone else?

I received a check for twenty bucks for the Toyota unintended acceleration settlement. Never owned a Toyota in my life, although obviously Lexus is part of Toyota.

Anyone else get one?

Nothing yet. Leaning up against my mailbox, tapping my foot, checking my watch though...

Yes, the SC430 (all years) is a part of the class action.

You got your $20 but the attorneys really made out. They are making an average of $2.647 million each.

"The Court has awarded Class Counsel attorneys’ fees of $200 million, plus an additional $27 million in costs and expenses. These fees and expenses will go to the multiple plaintiffs’ firms and approximately 85 attorneys who worked on the litigation."

I just got mine 2 days ago. I guess its for my Sequoia. Lol $20 isn't enough for a 1/4 of gas in it.
