NUMEROUS homeowners could receive an instant payout of up to $1,500 from a wide-reaching settlement—all by simply filling out an online form.
Penske Truck Rental, owned by the transportation services company Penske, has reportedly engaged in unsolicited robocalling practices that may have violated federal law.
To put it simply, Penske has been accused of making unwanted or unrequested phone calls to homeowners using automated systems that play prerecorded messages.
Penske, known not only for its truck rental and logistics services but also for its NASCAR and IndyCar racing teams, operates nationwide from its base in Bloomfield Township, Oakland County, Michigan.
According to TopClassAction, which reports on class action lawsuits, Penske is facing legal trouble over its alleged robocall practices.
In 2012, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) took action to address the growing annoyance and prevalence of robocalls.
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) was enacted to prohibit companies from making robocalls to residential and wireless phone numbers without first obtaining written consent from the recipients.
Under the TCPA, individuals who receive unsolicited robocalls may be eligible to receive up to $1,500 per phone call.
If you have received robocalls from Penske Truck Rental, you may qualify to participate in a class action lawsuit against the company.
Legal filings allege that Penske Truck Rental used pre-recorded voice messages to market its services without obtaining consent from recipients.
These practices may violate provisions of the TCPA.
If you received unsolicited phone calls or if Penske failed to honor your opt-out request, you could be entitled to receive between $500 and $1,500 per call.

This comes as drivers across Georgia are being warned of a ‘creative’ new scam that could drain their bank accounts.
Road users all over the metro area of Atlanta have been receiving threatening messages demanding they pay a fine – or face the consequences.
However, the messages, which are related to the Peach Pass – an electronic toll collection system that allows drivers to pay tolls on Georgia Express Lanes and other toll roads – are completely fake and include a malicious link.
While many of us are well aware that clicking on such links is strongly inadvisable, a report by WSBTV highlights that the web address and language used in the message are almost identical to those associated with Peach Pass.
It even looks like the real website once you click the link.
And elsewhere, parents may need to rush to the store if they want to dodge massive $120 fines under a new driving law crackdown.
Starting on April 2, drivers in Michigan will have to comply with the strict rules.
How to avoid being scammed at the repair shop
Motorautocar and the AARP have east-to-follow tips to avoid being scammed by a repair shop.
Motorautocar suggests asking to see parts that have been replaced or to see old fluids after they were swapped. If the shop says that’s impossible or refuses, it could be a sign it wasn’t done. Ask for a walkaround of the repairs that were done. Most mechanics are happy to show you what was done in the shop. While being walked around, look for evidence of repairs like the area being cleaned off, shiny new parts, tool marks on the bolts, tools being out or nearby, etc. Before taking your car in, look at other customer reviews on Google, Yelp, or Facebook. Many customers only review a company if they have negative reviews, so keep an eye out. For costly repairs, consider getting multiple opinions. If two to three shops suggest identical repairs, it’s likely to be true. Test a new shop with minor issues you’re aware of to see if they add anything to the repair bill. If applicable, bring someone to the shop who knows about cars to have them double-check or read a repair bill. Get everything on paper. Not only is it important for your repair records, but it can help protect you if legal measures are necessary.Source: Motorautocar, AARP
