Controversy edit
In January 2007, Dell was sued under claims that the laptops suffered premature motherboard failures caused by overheating shortly after the warranty period had ended. The suit, which sought class-action status, had been filed in Ontario, Canada. The affected Inspiron models included the 1100, 1150, 5100, 5150, and 5160.[2]
