So, do all car companies now face huge fines and jail time, or does VW get a refund?

So how much money did the Euro Trash Diesel Car makers bribe state and local smog testers to get their vehicles approved?

How much money did Obama's thugs and Al Gore's Thugs get to allow this to happen>

That black soot coating many cities have comes from diesel powered commune buses, not cars. Communists have not only killed the most people the last 100 years they are always the worst polluters. Just look at China or the USSR’s nuclear power record. Commies, both foreign and domestic, always exempt themselves from their central planning decisions.

This is a report put out by an independent environmental-NAZI watchdog group.

Here's the money quote:

“As all cars tested as part of this TRUE Initiative were pre-Euro 6d vehicles, the fact that they do not meet emissions requirements that only became mandatory after they were put on the market is not surprising,” says ACEA secretary general Erik Jonnaer, per British site Autocar.

I don’t know much about this but IIRC pollution stats are calculated on a per gallon burned basis.If that’s correct it must be noted that my diesel (2014...SCR equipped) gets an honest 53mpg on the Interstate.I’ll bet there aren’t any gas powered cars that weigh what mine does that gets anything close to that.So I wonder how my car does on a “per mile driven” basis rather than a “per gallon burned” one.
