On August 13, it was reported that American subsidiaries of Japanese companies, including Toyota Motor, Nintendo, Sony Group, and Express Sales, have recently been sued one after another by American consumers. The plaintiff claimed that the relevant company passed on the cost of “equal tariffs” to the price of the product. After the US Supreme Court found that the tariff was illegal and a tariff refund of about 166 billion US dollars was initiated, it would constitute an undue benefit if the company received a refund but did not return the corresponding amount to the consumer.
