It's a legal deal. Lawyers are trying to get a judge to approve a "class action" law suit. That's a law suit for many people who have the same issue, contested by a few "named plaintiffs". The results are then applied to all.
For lawyers it's the promised land. They rake off a small piece of each award and make many millions. But there are rules about when the tactic can be used. GM has already successfully defeated the startup of a State class action on this before. This is just another law firm taking a run at it, going to a Federal court. In the (unlikely?) event it's approved this time, the actual case will take a long time.
