Your Lawyers is a leading consumer action firm when it comes to emissions group actions. You may have heard or seen the term “dieselgate” over the past few years discussed in the media, and the group actions that have stemmed from the issues are ongoing cases that are the result of these problems. You could be eligible to join a Your Lawyers emissions action today.
Certain car manufacturers have faced allegations of cheating emissions tests. Allegations include the use of software and devices that could make it appear as though the car was emitting less pollution than it actually does in usual driving conditions. If allegations are proven to be true, this means that people may have been lied to, and that the cars sold to them may actually have not been meeting pollution laws and regulations. As a result of the scandals and allegations, thousands of vehicle models have had to be recalled and some have had to receive software updates. Because of this, people affected by these recalls could be entitled to financial compensation if allegations of cheating and breaking laws are proven to be correct.
There are currently multiple group actions that are ongoing against dozens of carmakers. These emission actions concern huge companies that include Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Vauxhall, and Volkswagen. Some of these actions are different to others in terms of the nature of the allegations that they are facing, and some are still in a period of early investigations. However, if you have been potentially affected by one of the many recalls and emissions issues that have arisen due to the scandals, you may be able to pursue a claim, and we are here to help.
Let’s briefly outline the events that started these emissions group actions.
In 2015, it was alleged that VW had been cheating emissions tests by using technology that may have allowed vehicles to pass tests when the cars should have failed them. This technology was alleged to be fitted into millions of cars and, once it came to light that these vehicles may have been in violation of several countries’ emissions rules, recalls were initiated. Customers and governing bodies may have been lied to and, as a result, legal action has been initiated on multiple fronts against the car company.
The Your Lawyers emissions action against VW was the first of its kind in England and Wales in the High Court when proceedings were issued in 2016.
As a result of the original “dieselgate” scandal, investigations into other car companies began and are still ongoing to this day. Because of these investigations, other group actions have been initiated on behalf of thousands of people who may have been misled by carmakers and may have had to have their vehicle recalled and updated.
