We are pleased to see the Mercedes emissions settlements that have taken place in the US, with $2.2bn set aside for resolving both civil and environmental claims.

Although this does not have a direct influence on any UK cases here, it is positive to see the news of the settlements. Action in the UK is taking place and you can be eligible to claim compensation if you are affected by the issues here in the UK.

Here is how we may be able to help you.

What do the US Mercedes emissions settlements mean for the UK?

The US Mercedes emissions settlements do not have a direct influence on any UK actions and court litigations that may take place here. The US has a completely separate jurisdiction to us, so we cannot rely on the settlements to be able to use them as a benchmark here in the UK.

That being said, the US and the UK do have similar regulations when it comes to emissions matters. This does not mean that any decision there can be directly applied here, but there are factors that we can consider. Further, it is encouraging to see this development, and we are pleased to note that a settlement has been achieved.

We know that, like VW, Daimler has denied that they have done anything wrong. They have indicated that they intend to defend any actions here in the UK, which is disappointing to see. Although they are separate cases, you may recall that VW took a similar stance as well. Recent court decisions have been very favourable for the Claimants, including the establishment that the technology VW used is a “defeat device”.
