What are the damages (money received in compensation) for, and what is the legal basis for a case?<\/p>\n<p>The primary factor that you are relying on is alleged fraudulent misrepresentation of the vehicle that you purchased or leased. If defeat devices have been used, you were not aware of this and have acquired a vehicle that we would argue has been miss-sold to you. If this happens, the law can entitle you to claim compensation.<\/p>\n<p>You could claim for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Any loss of value arising from the emissions scandal;<\/li>\n<li>Any additional costs or expenses associated with the scandal and\/or any so-called \u201cfix\u201d that may be applied;<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0The simple fact that you may have been deceived when you acquired the vehicle, if we can establish liability in the action.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Our \u00a396,000 compensation claim media coverage<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You may have seen <a href=\"https:\/\/www.caremissionslawyers.co.uk\/blog\/your-lawyers-mercedes-emissions-compensation-action-in-the-news\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Your Lawyers feature in the media<\/strong><\/a> in recent weeks, and you may have heard that you could be eligible to claim compensation of up to \u00a396,000.<\/p>\n<p>This sounds like a heck of a lot &#8211; we know!<\/p>\n<p>What are you claiming for, and how can you claim, when it comes to this as an amount?<\/p>\n<p>There is a sound legal basis for it, and we do not just make these things up. This amount is completely qualified; perhaps more so than some of the other amounts that other firms have quoted in the press.<\/p>\n<p>Here is how it works.<\/p>\n<p>You could be eligible to claim under the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations (also known as CPUT). These regulations can allow a consumer (i.e. you) to receive a percentage of the purchase price of the good or service you received which, in this case, is the vehicle. If these rules apply to you, you could receive 100% of the purchase price of your vehicle if a court determines that Daimler has committed a \u201cprohibited practice\u201d that is deemed as \u201cvery serious\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>If Daimler has used technology that amounts to a defeat device that is used to cheat emissions regulations &#8211; something that they strongly deny &#8211; we would consider this to be a very serious prohibited practice. If a Court agrees, a Claimant could receive 100% of the purchase price of the vehicle they own.<\/p>\n<p>Using \u2018on the road\u2019 price data from Daimler in May, the highest price of one of the potentially affected models was listed as \u00a396,000.00. As such, there is a clear legal basis for this kind of claim.<\/p>\n<p>So, what are you claiming for as a CPUT Claimant? You are claiming the full cost of your vehicle back if the above conditions have been met. This is based on regulations that are there to compensate victims of a breach and punish the offenders appropriately.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Damage to human health and to the environment<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Some people think that the owners taking part in the case haven\u2019t been harmed, and we have seen them asking: what are you claiming for, and why?<\/p>\n<p>Not only can the law allow you to claim, and not only could you be entitled to compensation for the sorts of things we have mentioned above, there is also the need for general justice for what has happened. NOx is incredibly dangerous and is regulated when it comes to emissions for very good reasons. If cheating has taken place, we think it is only right for a company to be financially punished &#8211; i.e., where it hurts &#8211; for any human and environmental damage that they may have caused.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, research indicated that the additional emissions from the VW \u2018dieselgate\u2019 scandal may have contributed to thousands of additional deaths in Europe alone. In our view, this is an important factor to consider.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caremissionslawyers.co.uk\/mercedes-emissions-scandal-compensation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Start your No Win, No Fee Mercedes Emissions Compensation Claim here today.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are you claiming for when you take part in the Mercedes Emissions Compensation Action, which could see Daimler paying billions in compensation?
