"US insurance case on non-OE crash parts may limit future class action lawsuits - Industry News - News & Events - Auto Industry: 'State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Co., the USA?s largest vehicle and home insurer, has won the reversal on appeal of a $1 billion verdict in what is described as an apparent victory for business groups trying to limit class action suits in the country, which have often featured vehicle manufacturers in recent years. The Illinois Supreme Court decided that 4.7 million claims over State Farm's requirement for use of generic (non-OE) parts in car repairs varied too much to be grouped together.'"
You still should check with your local State Statutes to see if your state requires the use of Original Equipment for replacement parts.
