Meadow sued Porsche in 2015 claiming that her actor father was trapped by a faulty seatbelt and burned alive while in the passenger seat of a 2005 Porsche Carrera GT.
The lawsuit also alleged that Porsche knew the Carrera GT had a history of 'instability and control issues'.
Court documents also showed that Paul's father, Paul William Walker III, also settled his own lawsuit against Porsche.
Meadow previously was awarded $10.1 million in a 2016 settlement from the estate of Roger Rodas.
