Michigan Workers Can Join Class Action Lawsuit Settlement Over Pandemic Unemployment Repayments

Michigan workers who believe they were wrongly asked to repay pandemic-era unemployment benefits to the Michigan Unemployment Insurance Agency (UIA) can now seek information and file claims online regarding a class action lawsuit settlement. 

The settlement in Saunders v. Unemployment Ins. Agency et al. allows workers to be reimbursed for money repaid before protests and appeals were resolved, or to opt out of the settlement.

“This resolution benefits claimants and ensures they receive the money they deserve,” said UIA Director Julia Dale. The UIA aims to address issues from the public health crisis and transform into a model for fast, fair, and fraud-free service.

For more details and to file claims, workers can visit the Claimant Homepage at Michigan.gov/UIA.

Kia Recalls 463,000 Telluride SUVs Over Fire Risk In Power Seats

Car manufacturer Kia, is recalling almost 463,000 Telluride SUVs from model years 2020-2024 due to a fire risk linked to overheating seat motors, federal highway safety regulators warned. Owners are urged to park their vehicles outside as a precaution. 

The recall affects Tellurides manufactured between January 2019 and May 2024. The defect, present in an estimated 1% of these SUVs, involves the power seat adjustment motor. If the seat adjustment switch is hit too forcefully, it can dislodge and cause the motor to run continuously, leading to overheating and potential fire hazards. Kia advises all owners to heed the recall and contact dealers for repairs to prevent any incidents.
