Have You Been Impacted by Defective Stanley Travel Mugs?
If you purchased a Stanley Switchback or Stanley Trigger Action travel mug and experienced issues with defective lids, you may be entitled to compensation.
A class-action lawsuit has been filed against Pacific Market International LLC, the maker of Stanley-brand tumblers, alleging that the company failed to adequately compensate consumers following a recall of 2.6 million travel mugs. The recall was prompted by reports of lids detaching due to heat, posing spill and burn hazards.
Key Details:
• Models Affected: Stanley Switchback and Stanley Trigger Action travel mugs in 12 oz, 16 oz, and 20 oz capacities.
• Safety Concerns: Reports of lids detaching during use, causing spills and burns.
• Recall Issues: Allegations include inadequate refunds, “inferior” replacement lids, and insufficient public notice of the recall.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has urged consumers to stop using the affected mugs immediately. Despite this, the lawsuit alleges that Stanley refused to refund customers and downplayed the recall to minimize costs.
If you purchased a Stanley travel mug and were denied a refund or experienced issues with defective lids, you may qualify to join this lawsuit.
