Judge: Substantial Progress in Volkswagen Emissions Talks
The Associated Press is reporting that Volkswagen and attorneys for vehicle owners affected by the company’s emissions cheating scandal are on target to meet a June deadline for a final settlement proposal, a federal judge said Tuesday.
A federal judge in San Francisco said the parties have made substantial progress in reaching a deal for that could affect more than 480,000 owners of polluting Volkswagens in the U.S.
“Many questions remain unanswered, including how much money owners can expect in a buyback and how much additional compensation beyond repairs and buybacks they’ll receive,” according to the report.
