The Myers Auto Group class action settlement received preliminary approval from the court on February 5, 2026 and covers all individuals whose private information was compromised in the May 2025 data breach. The settlement agreement reports that approximately 4,229 individuals are covered by the deal.

The court-approved website for the Myers Auto Group data breach settlement can be found at MyersDataIncident.com.

According to the website, Myers Auto settlement class members who file a timely, valid claim form are eligible to receive a one-time, pro-rated cash payment from the settlement fund with no proof required. The agreement explains that the final amount of this payment will be determined by the number of valid claims filed.

Class members may receive their payout via check or electronic payment, the agreement adds, and all checks must be cashed within 90 days of issuance before expiration.

In addition to any monetary benefits, all settlement class members are automatically eligible to receive one free year of CyEx Financial Shield Complete, which includes one-bureau credit monitoring and data protection, per the agreement.

The settlement site reiterates that class members do not need to file a claim for this benefit; all class members were sent an enrollment code for CyEx Financial Shield Complete with their respective copies of the settlement notice. Class members may activate the service by entering the CyEx code on this page after the court grants the settlement final approval and final judgment.

If a class member no longer has their CyEx Financial Shield enrollment code, the settlement site recommends that they contact the settlement administrator for further instructions.

Importantly, the settlement agreement notes that all attorneys’ fees, administrative costs, lead plaintiff service awards and Financial Shield enrollments will be paid by Myers Auto Group, separate from the $15,000 settlement fund. In other words, the settlement fund will be used only to make pro-rated cash payments to class members and to pay any outstanding taxes owed.

To file a Myers Auto Group settlement claim form online, class members can head to this page and log in using the unique ID and PIN (distinct from the CyEx enrollment code) found on their received copy of the settlement notice. Alternatively, class members may download a PDF of the claim form from the website to print, fill out and return by mail to the address of the settlement administrator listed on the second page of the document.

All Myers Auto Group data breach claim forms must be submitted online or by mail by May 26, 2026.

The court will determine whether to grant final approval to the Myers Auto data breach settlement following a hearing on May 8, 2026. Compensation will begin to be distributed to class members only after final approval has been granted and any appeals are resolved.

The Myers Auto Group class action lawsuit alleged that the Florida-based automobile dealership chain failed to implement reasonable cybersecurity safeguards to protect the sensitive consumer information stored on its systems, leading to a cyberattack in May 2025. Per court documents, the files potentially compromised by the breach contained private and protected health information such as names, contact information, dates of birth, and government identification numbers like Social Security numbers and driver’s license numbers.
