Recours collectif déposé contre Sony concernant les remboursements de tarifs douaniers sur la PS5

Une plainte en recours collectif a été déposée contre Sony Interactive Entertainment auprès d'un tribunal fédéral de Californie, alléguant que l'entreprise tire un avantage financier indu des remboursements de droits de douane. La poursuite soutient que les consommateurs devraient bénéficier de cet argent après avoir payé des prix plus élevés pour les consoles PlayStation 5.

La poursuite, Walker et al c. Sony Interactive Entertainment LLC, a été déposée le 6 mai 2026 devant le tribunal de district des États-Unis pour le district nord de Californie. Elle accuse Sony de conserver un gain exceptionnel provenant de remboursements liés à des droits de douane que la Cour suprême des États-Unis a jugés illégaux en avril 2026. Les plaignants soutiennent que Sony a augmenté le prix des consoles pour compenser ces tarifs et devrait désormais reverser les remboursements aux acheteurs plutôt que de conserver les fonds.
