Mercedes-Benz was sued as part of the broader diesel emissions scandal — similar to the Volkswagen Dieselgate case — for allegedly equipping its BlueTEC diesel vehicles with software that produced lower emissions during testing than during real-world driving. Regulators required Mercedes to perform an Approved Emissions Modification on affected vehicles to bring them into compliance with emissions standards.
Mercedes-Benz agreed to provide cash incentive payments to owners who had the AEM performed on their vehicles as compensation for the inconvenience and any diminution in vehicle performance or value resulting from the modification.
How Much Will I Actually Get?
