Bardin v. DaimlerChrysler Corp.
California Court of Appeal
1Opinion of the Court
Opinion
FYBEL, J.
Introduction
The trial court sustained defendant DaimlerChrysler Corporation’s (DCC) demurrer to plaintiffs’ second amended complaint which alleged violations of the unfair competition law (UCL) 1 and the Consumer Legal Remedies Act (CLRA), 2 and sought declaratory relief. The alleged statutory violations were based on DCC’s use of tubular steel in the exhaust manifolds of certain of its vehicles instead of more durable and more expensive cast iron. We affirm because plaintiffs failed to state a claim under any of those causes of action.
