Did you purchase a POS Aiwa system between 1992 - 2000? Legal notice.

Class Action Claims Site - If you purches an AIWA stereo system between 1992 - 2000, you may be entitled to a settlement.

I bought one from Sears several years ago, and it is the bigges POS i've ever owned. The CD player hasn't worked in about 3 years.

I have one and it sucks too, it turns on on its own and everything and switches to MD (line in basically) when it does. Its very straaaaange. Its a CX-NA888 and its...sort of listed. Listed as a CX-NA888UST whats the difference........
Oh...Regarding the CD player though i stopped using it a long time ago cause it worked erratically so i dont really know the status on whatever that is if it matters. I have one in my computer hooked up to a 5.1 surround anyway

THANKS SO MUCH FOR THIS HEADS UP!

I have an Aiwa CX-NA50 and it was actually something I enjoyed owning until it stopped playing CDs. I would very much like to get it fixed!

Had I known of this settlement, I wouldn't have purchased the POS Panasonic minishelf system that I own now.

I loved my AIWA...when it worked.

My Sony mini bookshelf system I bought from Sears a few years ago still works to this day.

 

[andrey]

wow, so much work and so many paperks for just $10...

 

[CraigRT]

Aiwa are nice when they work OK.. sucks about this.. I like JVC Mini Systems.

 

[bigrash]

dude thanks for that link. My aiwa's cd player hasn't played in years and the model is listed.

 

[ElFenix]

you couldn't fix it by cleaning the lens?

I think it says that you get $10 if your stereo is fine.

 

[Squisher]

Thanks our Aiwa system just refuses to play some CDs.

 

[Kaervak]

Mine has quit playing CD's. Don't know when considering I've never used the CD player portion of it. I suppose if I care enought I'll file a claim.

Same thing here, I have a CX-NMA545 and they list CX-NMA545UST

EDIT: I just checked the back of my system and it says CX-NMA545U

Well you buy something cheap, you get what you paid for! If you want something to last you have to foot the big cash to buy that.

 

[Aceshigh]

Had my Aiwa bookshelf stereo system for at least 8 years and it still works perfectly, including the cd player.

I wouldn't say AIWA systems are cheap, unless $300 for a system a budget spending for you. But at the same time, my system (CX-NMA845) works just fine and has been working fine for the last 5 years.

 

[0roo0roo]

yay finally everyone knows the damned cd player just breaks. the cd changer on mine only lasted a little over a year. the rest of it works but what good is it without a @#% cd player 400 bux wasn't cheap back then(5 years ago~)

[0roo0roo]

good god, downloaded the model list eligeble... its like freakin all their models since 92 or something..

 

[0roo0roo]

btw how did u find out? i figure most aiwa owners won't

 

[Imdmn04]

My Aiwa is on there, the cd player still works, and its been 7 years. guess I'm one of the luckier ones.

 

[jfall]

too bad it doesn't include the aiwa cdc-mp3 car decks.. I bought one of those about a year ago and it's the biggest piece of junk I have ever owned, almost ashamed to have it installed

It was listed in the Sunday Paper edition of USA Weekend.

I just want my CD player fixed..

Same here. Probably going on closer to 10 years for me. Never had the slightest bit of trouble with it, and still consider it one of my best purchases.

 

[SuperTool]

I have the CX-NA777, which is on the list. Got it half price. Man, I miss VA.com
I never use the CD player, but hopefully it works.

Thanks much!
The CD player on my 5 year old CX-ZR525 has been acting up for quite a while. I was just debating whether to fix it or just get a new unit. Guess I know what to do now!

 

[JayPatel]

crap, mine is on that list too. sh!tty for me is that I am in Canada. i loved mine till it stopped recognizing CD's. Anyone know anything about any possible canadian settlements?
