Finally, after running independent lab tests, the Federal Trade Commission filed sues for false and misleading advertising, deceptive acts and marketing practices. The FTC contends that Speedway Motorsports and Oil-Chem Corp engaged in false advertising that ran in over 13,000 info-mertials, as well as printed matter, endorsements by experts and racecar drivers. FTC testing found zMax products contained just mineral oil, with different color dyes added to differentiate them. The often-touted zMax lab tests were refuted by the FTC independent lab tests. Motor oil treated with zMax motor oil additive produced twice as much bearing corrosion as the untreated motor oil control sample. The FTC suit says the public interest is at risk; consumers will continue to “suffer substantial monetary loss” when their engines or transmissions fail. All the while zMax’s makers are getting rich.
