Loading ...Apple, AT&T Sued Over iPhone Battery Concerns, Again
iPhone battery target of yet another class action lawsuit
A class action lawsuit filed last week in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California alleges that Apple and AT&T mislead iPhone customers by not warning of the fees required to replace the iPhone battery and maintain service.
The suit, filed by Sydney Leung on behalf of iPhone users, seeks more than $5 million in damages. The legal documents, according to Computerworld, claims that the iPhone customer “was not informed at the time of purchase of the costs and procedures for replacing the battery.”
Furthermore, the suit seeks answers to whether Apple and AT&T “should have known that the time and expense of replacing the iPhone battery would affect initial sales of the iPhone.”
The complaint also believes that the iPhone battery must be replaced after 300 charges, incurring a yearly charge for the replacement part and the technician labor costs.
