FAQs
We intend to bring your claim as a group action collectively with other claimants who are also owed compensation from Mercedes for its wrongful behaviour. Since 2009, Mercedes has used a ‘defeat device’ in their engines that falsely reported the vehicle’s emission levels.

- (3) fuel consumption may not have been as economical as advertised.
