VW customers, dealers seek speedy action on emissions scandal
Firm must indemnify any consumers hit by damage: German consumer body
Frankfurt
VOLKSWAGEN must move quickly to recall and refit models rigged to pass US emissions tests to limit the long-term impact to its reputation, dealers and consumer protection bodies say.
"To regain confidence, Volkswagen needs to indemnify any consumers affected by damage," Klaus Mueller, head of the Federation of German Consumer Organisations, said. "The company must either retrofit all affected vehicles or give the affected individuals the right to retrofitting."
