In July 2018, 3M paid $9.1 million to resolve Department of Defense allegations that the company sold dangerous and defective Combat Arms Earplugs ™ (CAEv2) to the military for more than a decade without warning they were defective.
But the company has yet to help the service members who may have suffered serious hearing damage when the earplugs they depended on loosened and exposed them to dangerous sound levels. If you were diagnosed with or are suffering from hearing loss or tinnitus after serving in a foreign conflict and wearing defective earplugs, you might qualify for significant financial compensation.
If you wore Combat Arms Earplugs ™ (CAEv2) during foreign conflicts between 2003 and 2015 and were diagnosed with or suffer from tinnitus or hearing loss, you may be entitled to Significant Compensation!
Defective Earplugs Were Standard Issue for More Than 10 Years
CAEv2 were standard issue in certain branches of the military during foreign conflicts between 2003 and 2015 and may have caused thousands of soldiers to suffer significant hearing loss and tinnitus, and exposed millions more to the risks of hearing damage caused by the allegedly defective earplugs.
According to the DOJ lawsuit, 3M has known since 2000, that the earplugs were defective. Originally created by Aearo Technologies, 3M hired Aearo employees who developed and tested the earplugs after acquiring the company in 2008. These employees were aware of the defects as early as 2000, several years before 3M became the exclusive provider of selective attenuation earplugs to the military.
