Valladares v. Mitsubishi - A Canadian family of four were in an auto accident on the Gene Snyder Freeway in Louisville, KY on October 29, 2002.

The liability limits of the at-fault driver were quickly recovered and this lawsuit involved a products liability lawsuit against Mitsubishi who had built the Eagle Vista station wagon driven by the Valladares.

The case was settled through a federal mediation.
