VW given a month to present diesel fix plan
Washington
A US judge has given Volkswagen one month to present a plan to fix diesel engine cars secretly outfitted with pollution cheat devices.
District Judge Charles Breyer, at a hearing in San Francisco, set a March court date for the German auto giant, and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), to present the plan. "By March 24th, when I plan to have the next hearing in this matter, I want a definite answer from Volkswagen and EPA whether or not they've achieved a resolution of these vehicles - a remediation of these vehicles - whether they can do so technologically and within the parameters that EPA believes acceptable to them," Judge Breyer said, according to a transcript of court proceedings obtained on Thursday by AFP.
