Brussels Urges Volkswagen To Compensate All EU Dieselgate

EU Justice Commissioner Didier Reynders said in a statement that VW “is not willing to work with consumer organisations to find appropriate solutions for consumers,” noting that it so far is only making payouts to German and US purchasers of its affected vehicles.

“All consumers need to be compensated,” Reynders said.
