What Is The Claim About?

A diesel claim is a legal action taken by diesel vehicle owners who believe they have been affected by the 'dieselgate' scandal.

'Dieselgate' refers to the revelation in 2015 that certain car manufacturers used 'defeat devices' in their diesel vehicles to manipulate emissions tests and appear more environmentally friendly than they actually were.

The claim seeks compensation for financial losses and health impacts experienced by the vehicle owners due to higher pollutant emissions from their vehicles.

Manufacturers may have misled consumers by advertising these vehicles as eco-friendly when they emitted higher levels of harmful nitrogen dioxide (NOx) during real-world driving.

Our expert legal panel are representing eligible vehicle owners on a No-Win No-Fee basis, meaning you will only pay legal fees if the case is successful.

The claim aims to hold accountable for potential their actions, seek justice for the eligible owners, and promote environmental responsibility in the automotive industry.

THE Most FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • What Is The Emissions Scandal?

    The emissions scandal has grown over the last couple of years to encompass much more than one manufacturer.

    In 2015, Volkswagen admitted to fitting 11 million of its vehicles with a “cheat device” after the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) had found that their cars had cheated emissions tests . Of the 11 million, it said 8.5 million were in Europe, with 1.2 million being in the UK. At the time, the car maker incurred $33 billion in regulatory fines, compensation payouts and buyback schemes.

  • Car manufacturers have potentially deceived millions of UK residents by installing defeat devices in their vehicles to cheat emissions tests. Our goal is to hold them accountable and ensure that our roads have clean and trustworthy vehicles.

    • Claim Compensation: Seek compensation for purchasing a car with a deceitful "defeat device."
    • Hold Manufacturers Accountable: Take a stand against car manufacturers' false emissions claims.

  • Yes, over £100m has already been paid in compensation for UK Diesel Emission Claims.

  • The defeat device in question is clever. It detects when an emissions test was being conducted and operated the vehicle in a special low emissions mode. This meant that the vehicles real-world emissions were actually much higher than the tests could find.

    Fast forward to 2023, and many, many more manufacturers are beginning to be caught out. Each defeat device technology is different across different car makers, but the end result is similar – real world emissions by these vehicles are a lot higher than the laboratory tests and, therefore, a lot higher than what was promised when purchasing the car. We believe this is wrong and you are entitled to compensation if you have been lied to.
