It is important that we issue a specific warning about Mercedes emissions compensation claims as it may now be too late to pursue a No Win, No Fee “Dieselgate” case in that action.
As things stand, the deadline for the original VW Group Litigation Order (GLO) action passed years ago, and that action was settled in the summer of 2022. Anyone yet to start a Mercedes emissions claim may also be out of time, as we will explain below.
The first step toward establishing if you are still eligible to claim is to complete the forms on our website here now.
It has been reported that the South Korean antitrust regulator has issued fines in respect of alleged collusion said to have taken place between Audi, BMW, Mercedes, and Volkswagen.
The fines are reportedly not going to be paid by all the carmakers that are said to be involved as a result of leniency policies and the way in which collusion may have taken place, it is understood. Whilst this latest story is not directly linked to the “Dieselgate” matters that are ongoing here in the UK, it is another story in relation to the global emissions issues over the last decade or so.
You can find out if you are still able to pursue an emissions compensation claim here in the UK by completing a few forms on our website here now.
It has been reported that Mercedes-Benz has settled a diesel legal action in the US state of Arizona in the sum of $5.5 million.
The news that Mercedes-Benz has settled this particular diesel claim will no doubt come as positive news for those who can benefit from the resolution. In terms of the worldwide fight for emissions justice, we see this as positive news, and we often cover these stories when a settlement has taken place.
We have a separate legal jurisdiction here in England and Wales to the US, so the settlement does not really have any direct impact on us here. For anyone who has yet to sign up for their No Win, No Fee emissions compensation case, you can do so by completing a few forms here now.
A Mercedes-Benz class action style trial is reportedly underway in Germany over allegations from a consumer protection group that the carmaker has used technology that amounts to a defeat device.
If the trial succeeds, compensation could be owed to German owners and a precedent could be set in respect of further claims against the carmaker. As other vehicle manufacturers are doing, Mercedes-Benz strongly denies that it has done anything wrong and disputes the claims.
In England and Wales, we are representing claimants who are engaged in compensation action against Mercedes-Benz over allegations of technology that could amount to a defeat device.

A Mercedes-Benz Canadian class action has reportedly settled on a provisional basis in the sum of $243m to account for some 80,000 owners who have joined the claim.
In terms of the wider fight for global justice arising from allegations of emissions cheating and deception, this looks to be another positive step forward. It is understood that a hearing is set to take place this week where the court may then be able to approve the provisional settlement made, and we will be keeping an eye on developments.
As pioneers in emission compensation, we have worked and networked with lawyers around the world, including Canadian lawyers. We welcome this latest provisional decision and look forward to more as time goes on.
Fresh allegations of “defeat devices” in Mercedes vehicles are being reported as the ongoing emissions scandals continue to hit the headlines.
We have been representing clients for emissions cases since the very beginning in 2015, and we were the first firm in England and Wales to take VW to the High Court in January 2016. Since then, we have launched dozens of actions against more carmakers as we continue to investigate the numerous allegations that manufacturers are facing.
These fresh allegations come out from Germany and add to those that Daimler/Mercedes, and others, are already facing.
Allegations of diesel emissions fraud have long been investigated in Europe following the revelation that Volkswagen had been manipulating emissions controls in its vehicles, cheating regulations. As the EU issues fines for emissions scandal culprits such as VW and BMW, questions have been raised about the impact on the wider car manufacturing industry and who else may also be involved in similar behaviour.
VW and BMW have been singled out in a recent antitrust investigation by the European Commission over claims that they had colluded with Daimler, the owner of the Mercedes-Benz brand. According to The Guardian, this was in relation to delaying the development of “emissions-cleaning technology” in their vehicles. Now, upon the conclusion of the investigation, the two companies have reportedly been hit with a total fine of €875m.
The findings of the investigation suggest that the three companies acted unlawfully. Many other well-known car brands have similarly been levelled with accusations of emissions fraud in the wake of the Volkswagen emissions scandal, so the conclusion of this EU investigation could be a sign of further penalties to come.
A Mercedes-Benz emissions settlement has been granted preliminary approval in a class action lawsuit in the USA. The agreement between Mercedes-Benz and law firms has reportedly been reached following consumer claims against the carmaker, which alleged that diesel vehicles had been fitted with systems that may have manipulated emissions. This could then allegedly allow them to produce amounts of Nitrogen oxide (NOx) gases that exceeded the legal limits.
The claim in the US case mirror allegations against Mercedes and its parent company Daimler which span across the globe, with millions of vehicles suspected of emissions irregularities. Many accusations against Mercedes have their origins in the Volkswagen “dieselgate” scandal from 2015, in which it emerged that the well-known manufacturer had been cheating emissions tests by means of illegal software known as defeat devices.
As pioneers of emissions litigation, we initiated the first High Court proceedings against Volkswagen in 2016 in England and Wales and have since been fighting to ensure that car owners affected by emissions scandals can recover the compensation they deserve. We believe that the Mercedes settlement in America bodes well for our own action against the company, so affected victims can sign up today if they want to join the fight for justice. They deny any wrongdoing here still, and claims are at a much earlier stage as investigations into allegations continue.
