A federal appeals court ruled that General Motors (GM) should face a significant class action lawsuit over claims that it violated the laws of 26 states by knowingly selling vehicles with defective transmissions.

The decision, handed down by the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, allows drivers to sue as a group over alleged issues with GM's 8L45 and 8L90 eight-speed automatic transmissions, which were installed in Cadillac, Chevrolet, and GMC vehicles from the 2015 to 2019 model years, Reuters reported.
