LG G5, V20 and Nexus 5X added to LG bootloop class action

For those who don't know, the bootloop problem is the result of a manufacturing error, namely a badly-soldered CPU. Affected devices suffer from slowdowns, freezes, and problems booting (hence the name), and ultimately stop working entirely. LG has acknowledged the problem only for cases concerning the G4 and Nexus 5X, offering replacements for customers.
The lawsuit, however, covers more devices, and, being of the class-action variety, spells trouble for the company. Girard Gibbs, the attorney firm representing the plaintiffs, is now conducting a survey to find more people to join the lawsuit. It claims that with its actions, LG has breached several warranty laws, as replacement units for affected devices have also reportedly suffered from the same issue.
This is something of an awkward timing for LG, however, as the company has recently launched its latest foray into the world of flagship smartphones, the LG G6. This phone is especially important for the company, as the modular G5 failed to achieve success with consumers, so a high-profile lawsuit is most definitely not what the company needs to succeed right now. On the other hand, this didn't seem to slow down Samsung, so who knows?
