Diesel emissions recalls and claiming compensation

If you have been affected by diesel emissions recalls, you could be eligible to pursue emissions compensation. Our leading team of Consumer Action Lawyers may be able to represent you on a No Win, No Fee basis.

However, as we will touch on below, even if you have not undergone any kind of recall, this does not stop you from pursuing a case. If you own or lease, or previously owned or leased, a diesel model over the last decade, you could be eligible to pursue a claim.

Have you been affected by any diesel emissions recalls?

If you have been affected by any diesel emissions recalls – and there have been plenty since the “Dieselgate” scandal first emerged in 2015 – you could be eligible to pursue compensation. Some of the recalls have been quite clear in respect of the emissions issues and hardware or software fixed whereas, in other circumstances, some vehicles have undergone alterations without people fully understanding what has happened. Sometimes, emissions alterations have been undertaken as part of routine servicing without proper explanation as to what the garages were actually doing.

However it may have happened, if you have been affected by the diesel emissions recalls, it may be that the matter relates to some form of emissions cheating. Carmakers continue to generally deny that they have done anything wrong in respect of allegations that have been made against them, but we are confident that there is enough evidence and information to pursue the cases that we are pursuing. If it transpires that a particular manufacturer has deployed technology that could amount to a defeat device, that is when consumers could be eligible to pursue compensation.

You can find out if you are eligible to pursue an emissions claim by completing a few forms on our website here now.

What if you have not undergone a recall?

Many of those who we represent have not undergone any diesel emissions recalls at all. Some manufacturers simply continue to deny that they have done anything wrong and have not initiated recalls because they have not been forced to do so. Some recalls can be voluntary, whereas others can be enforced through government intervention.

Ultimately, if your vehicle has not undergone any kind of recall, this does not mean that you do not have a potential case. Generally speaking, if you own or lease – or previously owned or leased – a diesel model over the last ten years or so, you could be eligible to pursue compensation.
