Were You a Houston Hills CPAP User Affected by the Philips Recall?
Philips Respironics recalled over 15 million CPAP, BiPAP, and ventilator devices in June 2021 due to degrading PE-PUR foam that released toxic particles and chemical gases into users' airways. If you used a recalled Philips CPAP device while living in or near Houston Hills, you may be eligible for compensation through one or both of the following settlement tracks:
- Economic Loss Track ($445M): You owned a recalled device. No health problems required. Your device is now worthless — that's compensable.
- Personal Injury Track ($1.1B): You developed health conditions — cancer, respiratory damage, or other injuries — from breathing foam particles and chemical gases.
Filing Deadline for Houston Hills Residents
As a resident of Houston Hills, Texas, your claims are governed by Texas's product liability statute of limitations of 2 years. Texas has a 2-year statute of limitations for product liability claims. Texas follows the discovery rule for latent defects, and the clock may start from when you first knew or should have known of the connection between your Philips CPAP and health problems.
The discovery rule is critical: Many $Houston Hills CPAP users only connected their health problems to their recalled device after the June 2021 recall announcement — meaning their statute of limitations clock may have started then, not when health problems first appeared.
