Although VW Canada has a settlement proposal on the table, the presiding judge has commented that it may not be in the best interests of the consumers.

French car maker Renault has been accused of rigging their vehicles to pass official emissions testing amongst the host of others in the spotlight like VW right now.
It’s believed that the conspiracy went all the way to the top with even the Chief Executive Carlos Ghosn being aware.
At present, Renault deny any wrongdoing; but if the allegations are found to be true, we may have yet again another carmaker who seems to be putting profits before people and our fragile environment…

It’s been months since Volkswagen publically reminded us that compensating victims of the scandal in the UK was unnecessary because a simple ‘fix’ would solve everything.
Victims here were not happy to hear this, especially when U.S. customers are receiving up to $40,000 each through generous buy-back schemes and compensation payouts.
We already know that the so-called ‘fix’ may be causing issues because many of our own clients have reported problems. So, we weren’t surprised to hear that Swedish testing has also revealed issues with VW’s so-called ‘fix’ as well.
The damning evidence is mounting…

A German Environmental Aid, Deutsche Umwelthilfe (DUH), has recently announced a lawsuit as a result of the emissions scandal arising from VW diesel engines.
Some vehicles have shown excessive nitrogen oxide emissions even after the software updates – aka the emissions “fix” – according to the Federal Managing Director of the environmental aid, Jurgen Resch.

VW are doing better with admitting liability nowadays… well, in the U.S. they are!
On 10th March, VW pleaded guilty in the U.S. over the ‘dieselgate’ scandal. However, it doesn’t reflect their position in Europe. NY Times states that the ‘troubles may be just beginning’ on the continent, and we agree.
Ultimately though, victims here in the U.K. are being denied access to justice, yet our U.S. counterparts are receiving damages.

The excessive air pollution caused by the Nitrous Oxide emissions from Volkswagen Group is allegedly causing early deaths for thousands in Europe, and may continue to do so unless the affected cars are made to comply with emissions legislation.
A thorough study conducted by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has reportedly found that Volkswagen, Audi, Skoda, and Seat affected vehicles are emitting so much Nitrous Oxide pollution that an estimated 3,400 people may have already died prematurely in Europe.

Back in autumn of 2015, a colossal scandal broke out that shook the motor industry to its core.
Volkswagen group and its subsidiaries were found to have been cheating car emissions testing through the use of so-called “defeat devices” – a fact of which VW are bizarrely accepting in some countries, and disputing in others.

The impact on owners has been huge.

Will VW owners affected by the Volkswagen Emissions Scandal here in the UK receive compensation?
This is the BIG question…
When the scandal broke out, millions of affected owners were horrified to find out what had happened, and how the financial value of their vehicles may be affected. So could they get their money back? In full, or even in part?
At the break of the scandal, VW UK managing director Paul Willis said that VW will not be compensating UK owners – and he hasn’t changed his remorseless tune…
