What is the Diesel Emissions Scandal?
The Diesel Emissions Scandal, often referred to as "Dieselgate," involves the discovery that several major car manufacturers have been using sophisticated software to cheat emissions tests. These manufacturers installed so-called 'cheat devices' in their diesel vehicles to manipulate the results of emissions tests, making their vehicles appear to comply with regulatory standards while actually emitting pollutants at much higher levels during normal driving conditions.
For consumers, the scandal has led to a decrease in the resale value of affected vehicles, higher maintenance costs, and a breach of trust. Many vehicle owners feel deceived, having purchased vehicles under the false impression that they were environmentally friendly and compliant with emissions standards.
The Diesel Emissions Scandal underscores the importance of corporate accountability and transparency in the automotive industry. It highlights the need for stricter enforcement of environmental regulations and greater oversight to prevent such deceptive practices in the future.
If Your Vehicle Was Affected, You Could Be Eligible To Claim Up To £10,000.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the diesel emissions scandal?
The Diesel Emissions Scandal involves several major car manufacturers using cheat devices in their diesel vehicles to cheat emissions tests, resulting in vehicles emitting far more pollutants than legally permitted during normal driving conditions.
What is a cheat device?
A cheat device is software installed in a vehicle's engine management system that detects when the vehicle is undergoing emissions testing and temporarily reduces emissions to meet regulatory standards. During normal driving, the vehicle emits higher levels of pollutants.
How do I know if my vehicle is affected?
You can find out if your vehicle is affected by completing the form above with your vehicle’s details. The form will quickly determine your eligibility for a claim.
Why should I claim?
Filing a claim can help you recover financial losses resulting from the decreased resale value of your vehicle. It also holds manufacturers accountable for their deceptive practices, promoting greater transparency and environmental responsibility in the automotive industry.
Can I claim if I no longer own the vehicle?
Yes, even if you have sold the vehicle, you may still be eligible to claim if you owned the affected vehicle during the relevant period. Consult your legal representative for more details.
What if my car has been fixed by the manufacturer?
Even if your car has been fixed by the manufacturer, you may still be eligible for compensation. The fix does not negate the fact that the vehicle was originally equipped with a cheat device and may have caused you financial loss and inconvenience. It's important to file a claim to seek compensation for any damages incurred.
