Illegal emissions levels have been emitted and have potentially harmed human health and the environment as a result of carmakers using technology that could amount to so-called defeat devices.

Your Lawyers – as Leading Consumer Action Lawyers – has been fighting for justice for thousands of people affected by the “Dieselgate” scandals since 2015. You can find out if you are still in time to file your compensation claim by completing a few forms on our simple website here now.

Dangers of illegal emissions levels

The dangers of potentially illegal emissions levels could be incredibly serious. The levels of emissions and pollutants that are allowed to be emitted are strictly controlled to protect human health and protect our environment. Dangerous gasses such as NOx can have a serious adverse effect on both human health and the environment, which is why it is important that emissions are carefully regulated.

If regulations are not upheld, more damage could be done. If more damage is being done, particularly in circumstances where the extent of the damage was not realised because of automotive giants cheating emissions regulations, you can see how serious this can be.

Defeat devices and the “dieselgate” scandal

The crux of the “dieselgate” scandals that started with the Volkswagen emissions matters that were first reported in the media in 2015 involved potentially illegal emissions levels being emitted. It is about technology that can amount to a so-called defeat device being used which could allow vehicles to pollute more dangerous NOx than was expected or anticipated. This was achieved by using technology that could allow vehicles to pass emissions testing whilst polluting far more in usual driving conditions.

As a result of the illegal emissions levels that have been polluted across the world, some scientists believe that there may have been thousands of extra premature deaths caused.

It is absolutely unacceptable for any company to break the law and intentionally deceive consumers and regulators. This is why we are here to pursue emissions compensation action on behalf of anyone who has bought or leased a vehicle that may have been affected by the “dieselgate” scandals.

Claim emissions compensation now – time is running out!

We cannot stress this enough, but time really is running out if you have yet to file your emissions compensation claim with us. We represent thousands of clients who are engaged in compensation actions against dozens of carmakers, and cut-off points for joining actions are set to expire very soon.

We are working on a No Win, No Fee basis which means that we can write off our legal fees if a case does not succeed, subject to the agreed terms and conditions in place. As such, the only question you need to ask yourself is this: what do you have to lose in pursuing a claim now.

It can only take a matter of minutes to get your emissions compensation claim set up and moving forward, but there is more to it than just completing a few forms and leaving the matter with us. We will need to make sure that all the evidence and information is collated so that your claim can be formally filed in any court action that is pending. Because of this, you really are already risking being out of time because, if we cannot get your claim fully set up in time before the deadlines expire, there is little more that we can do given how late in the day it is.

Do not delay any further: start your emissions compensation claim now here.
