Class Action Lawsuit against Mercedes Benz finds success

The Stuttgart High Court's long-awaited decision in a large-scale class action lawsuit has finally arrived, providing new hope for car owners affected by the Dieselgate scandal. The judgment 24 MK 1/24 finds the Mercedes Benz Group liable for damages caused by emissions cheating on the following vehicle types:

GLC 220 d 4Matic

GLC 250 d 4Matic

GLK 200 CDI

GLK 220 CDI

GLK 220 CDI 4Matic

GLK 220 BlueTec

GLK 250 BlueTec

Owners of these vehicles, like some of the 2800 consumers who joined the class-action lawsuit, are entitled to compensation of up to 15 % of the purchase price.

This judgement represents a significant step in seeking justice for impacted consumers and should encourage anyone affected to pursue their rights to seek compensation.
