Was Mercedes involved in Dieselgate?
The Mercedes-Benz-diesel emissions scandal Not only Volkswagen c.s. equipped its diesel cars with cheating software. In recent years, it has become apparent that also Mercedes-Benz is involved in Dieselgate. Mercedes-Benz already recalled many of its diesel models in connection with the emissions control system.
The German Type Approval Authority (KBA) has repeatedly instructed Mercedes-Benz to recall its diesel cars and take measures to remedy the defects related to the emission control systems. “Clearly, there is an industry-wide problem. It takes a broad approach to reach an appropriate solution. Of course, we prefer to reach such a solution without having to go to court.
But if necessary, we will ask the Dutch court to give motorist the right to return the affected diesels to their respective dealers – because not good means money back – and to recover the damages suffered from the car manufacturers.” – Guido van Woerkom The use of cheating software for the purpose of circumventing the rules, is prohibited.
- In December 2020, the European Court of Justice made it clear that the excuse of car manufacturers who say that the cheating software is necessary to protect the engine, is not valid.
- Car manufacturers who install cheating software into their cars for such reason, are breaking European laws.
- The judgment of the Court of Justice is an important milestone.
Volkswagen has always emphasized that the cheating software it uses is not prohibited because the software would be necessary to protect the engine for example against wear and tear. The Court of Justice now has ruled that this argument is invalid. Car manufacturers who install cheating software in cars for such reasons are violating European laws.
- Guido van Woerkom The power of the collective: that is what we’re going for.
- By uniting the voice of European consumers, the chance of receiving adequate compensation increases.
- Our ultimate goal: to ensure that the negative consequences of Dieselgate are not at your expense and risk.
- In December 2020, we started legal proceedings against Mercedes-Benz (and others) in the Netherlands on behalf of the injured Dutch car owners.
Possibly, also non-Dutch car owners will be able to join these proceedings against Mercedes-Benz. The court has yet to make a decision on this point. Regardless, the foundation also endeavours to protect your interests as a non-Dutch car owner outside the courtroom.
- For example, we regularly contribute to conferences (such as in the European Parliament).
- We also draw personal experiences from affected diesel car drivers, which we then introduce into our discussions with the various interest groups involved.
- We want to show that the emissions scandal has a huge impact on European car owners.
We also want to come to a solution that tackles the issues that millions of car owners are facing every day because of the use of cheating software. For non-Dutch car owners who individually want to take legal action against Mercedes-Benz, we work together with various partners in Europe, including a partner in Germany.
Don’t live in the Netherlands? Want to learn more about your options? Send us an e-mail. We would be happy to put you in touch with one of our partners in your own country. The Car Claim foundation has been investigating Mercedes-Benzconduct for some time. In the years following the outbreak of the emissions scandal in September 2015, various authorities of European Union member states, environmental organisations, court-appointed experts, consumer organisations and other independent non-profit organisations carried out investigations and tests on diesel vehicles of different brands placed on the European market.
The results of these ongoing investigations and tests are shocking. They show that the Volkswagen EA189 diesel engine scandal was just the tip of an iceberg. In reality, several car manufacturers selling cars on the European market are systematically manipulating the emission control systems in their cars.
In so doing, they use various illegal manipulation tools to gain an advantage. This is often to the detriment of motorists. The above-mentioned investigations and tests show that Mercedes-Benz uses various types of sham software to reduce the effectiveness of emission control systems under normal operating conditions.
The investigations and tests have also shown that many Mercedes-Benz diesel cars do not comply with European emission limits under normal conditions of use. Under the Euro 5 limits, diesel cars must not emit more than 180 mg of nitrogen oxide (NOx) per kilometer.

What cars are eligible for diesel claim?
In 2015, German car manufacturer Volkswagen admitted having installed emissions-cheating devices in many of their diesel models – which fooled testers into believing that their vehicles were low-polluting and safe for sale in the UK and abroad. When this was uncovered, and the vehicles were retested – they were then found to be extremely polluting.
It subsequently transpired that Volkswagen was not the only brand of carmaker to have used this prohibited software. In the aftermath of the scandal, now known as ‘dieselgate’, registered owners of diesel cars and vans made between 2007 and 2018 may be eligible to join a group legal claim. Law firms behind the claim allege that these diesel vehicles were mis-sold because they produced more harmful nitrogen oxide than advertised.
Although far from certain, those who can prove they were mis-sold could be due £1,000s of pounds. Whether you bought new or used, outright or on finance, if you think you may apply it is worth checking if you are eligible. 
Many car manufacturers have been accused of bypassing emissions standards during testing. What is the diesel emissions scandal? Which cars are affected by dieselgate? Is my diesel claim legitimate?

If your vehicle is diesel and was manufactured by Mercedes between 2009 and 2019 it may be affected. You can complete the questionnaire and we will be in touch to let you know if you are eligible to bring a claim. Harcus Parker is acting for owners of Mercedes-Benz cars, vans and taxis which are alleged to have been fitted with defeat devices, different in form but similar in effect to those used by Volkswagen.
Defeat devices allow cars to detect when an emissions test is being carried out and reduce emissions accordingly. Often, when the cars are driven in the real world, emissions will be many times higher than the regulated limits. NOx emissions have a real impact on people’s health and on the environment: they are a contributory factor in things like childhood asthma and acid rain.

What Mercedes can you write off?
Using IRS’s Section 179 To Write-off A Mercedes G-Wagon – Dennis explains the legal side of section 179 (heavy vehicles) when asked about writing-off a G-Wagon. If your vehicle has a gross weight (GVWR) above 6,000 pounds but below 14,000 pounds, you’re eligible for a $26,200 write-off if placed in service in 2021.
- But if the vehicle is 100% business use and is qualified for bonus depreciation under section 179, a complete write-off is possible says, Dennis.
- The Mercedes G-Wagon, owing to its 6,000-pound gross weight, is eligible for the write-off using this strategy.
- Other popular SUVs that can be included under section 179 are the 2022 Audi Q7, BMW X5, Land Rover Range Rover, Cadillac Escalade,, etc.
Bear in mind that you need to have the money to purchase the vehicle in the first place. Additionally, if your taxable income is $50,000, you cannot claim a $75,000 write-off and expect a $25,000 refund. This here is a tax strategy. Plus, if you written off the vehicle in its first year, you cannot apply for bonus depreciation and 100% write-off on the same vehicle next year.

Which Mercedes are part of the emissions scandal?
Home Auto Cars News This Popular Mercedes Benz Model Used Eight Emission Cheating Devices: Report For most of the auto industry, the memory of the dieselgate scandal is still fresh. Volkswagen was accused of using emission cheating devices for its TDI diesel engines. 
Mercedes E-Class was one of the affected cars due to the dieselgate scandal. Also Read : Mercedes-Benz celebrates 100 years of its three-pointed star logo A recent report has revealed that the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, one of the most popular cars from the brand, reportedly have eight emission cheating devices.
- In a public report by Deutsche Umwelthilfe (DUH), Mercedes-Benz is said to be using eight defeat devices in a Mercedes-Benz E-Class with Euro 6 diesel engine.
- These emission cheating devices were previously unknown, and they effectively reduce nitrogen oxide emissions by a substantial amount.
- The report claims that the 2016 Mercedes E350d model’s OM642 diesel engine had six defeat devices connected to the car’s built-in SCR catalytic converter.
Two other defeat devices were fitted to the car’s exhaust gas recirculation system. These defeat devices were reportedly capable of cheating the emission test in lab environments. The report claims that while on road in normal condition, the particular car emit up to 500 per cent more nitrogen oxide than permitted levels.
One of the defeat devices is reportedly claimed to significantly reduce the amount of AdBlue injected, which is required to neutralize the nitrogen oxides in the SCR catalytic converter. Back in 2018, Mercedes-Benz had to recall nearly 800,000 GLC and C-Class models in Europe owing to the dieselgate scandal.
Last year, the automaker had to pay around $2.8 billion to settle civil and environmental claims about the company’s diesel engine emissions control in about 250,000 vehicles in the US. The dieselgate scandal rocked the entire global auto industry. The current push for electrification too was catapulted to high momentum by the scandal.

How is the Mercedes claim going?
What else is to come in the Mercedes emissions scandal? – Daimler has stated that it intends to vigorously defend the claims it faces, however, so far it has not explained how, in light of the German fines and KBA recalls, it’s not liable to UK consumers.
- As the company recently lost its appeal against the KBA’s various recall notices, it is still required to recall and rectify the software in affected vehicles in order to bring them back into compliance with the emissions regulations.
- Recent developments in the Court of Justice of the European Union, handed down before the UK left the EU, may also have an impact on whether the vehicles are actually compliant with emissions regulations after the fix.
If the vehicles are found to deploy ‘thermal window’ software, this makes them compliant only in a certain temperature range. Due to the enormity of the impact ‘dieselgate’ has had on the motoring industry, new regulations will be placed on carmakers to avoid related circumstances from occurring in the future.
New on-road testing has also been launched to compliment laboratory testing on new vehicles. From January 2021, the Real Driving Emissions (RDE) test requires all new car registrations to have a maximum NOx emissions conformity factor of 1.0 (plus a slight allowance for inaccuracy). The actions in place to ensure manufacturers cannot cheat emissions testing in future provide strong confirmation that those who’ve already been caught doing so should be punished.

How much will I get from the VW emissions scandal?
How much has VW agreed to pay? –
- The company reached an out-of-court settlement this week.
- VW will pay £193m to settle 91,000 legal claims in England and Wales.
- Each claimant will receive on average of more than £2,100.
- It will also make a contribution to cover claimants’ legal costs and other fees.
- The action, which was launched in 2019, claimed that cars made by VW, including brands such as Audi, Seat and Skoda, emitted more nitrogen dioxide than the company said it did.
- It was launched after VW refused to compensate owners of affected models in the UK citing EU law.
- The Volkswagen Group has spent about £25bn globally on legal costs and said the decision to settle was “prudent”.
- It added: “No admissions in respect of liability, causation or loss have been made by any of the defendants in the group action as part of the settlement.
- “In Volkswagen’s view, the legal costs of litigating this case to a six-month trial in England, and then in relation to any further appeals by either party, were such that settlement was the most prudent course of action commercially.”
- It continued: “The Volkswagen Group would, once again, like to take this opportunity to sincerely apologise to their customers for the two mode software installed in the EA189 vehicles.
“The Volkswagen Group will continue to work to rebuild the trust of their customers here in England and Wales. This settlement represents an important further stage in that process.” The amounts will be allocated by the solicitors and not VW. David Whitmore, chief executive of Slater and Gordon Lawyers, said: “The settlement avoids the need for a lengthy, complex and expensive trial process and we are delighted to have achieved this settlement for our customers as a result of the group action.”
