    FCA Discussing A Possible Settlement Over Diesel Emission Cheating

      There's progress on cleaning up the EcoDiesel mess

    Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is trying to put the past behind them with the 3.0L EcoDiesel emission mess. The company has restarted production of the engine for the 2017 Ram 1500 and Jeep Grand Cherokee, and is in the process of getting a fix out there for older models. Now, talks about a possible settlement for owners of the 3.0L EcoDiesel are making some significant progress.

    At a hearing yesterday in San Fransisco, court settlement master Ken Feinberg said that proposed settlement documents have been passed between lawyers for FCA and owners of the 3.0 EcoDiesel. The proposal was also discussed at a meeting where the lawyers for both groups were joined by the Justice Department, California Air Resources Board, and supplier Bosch.

    “We’re looking for different substantive ways to secure an early comprehensive settlement,” Feinberg said.

    “Everybody in good faith is certainly trying to figure out how we might achieve a comprehensive settlement.”

    An agreement on a settlement could happen before tests of the proposed fix are finished in March.

    • I say, let it get worse.  The people have spoken and this is what the MAJORITY voted for.  He even got the popular vote.  Therefore the people of America have spoken.   This is what they want.  This is what they feel comfortable with.   But I dont want to hear ANY whining from ANYBODY about what possibly may happen with him Him in power.  Fool me once,  shame on you!  Fool me twice, shame on me?   Technically this is how that saying goes.  But you never know. Maybe it really IS the lefty libtards that are the problem.   Hopefully it IS the lefty libtards that are the problem and the Messiah Trump will BE the solution to ALL of our problems.

    • Not just iPhones... He tariffed Canadian wood the first time around as Pres and the prices of wood skyrocketed so American home builders bought American wood which was and is more expensive than Canadian wood.  I guess that is good for American wood producers. But for the fact that house prices also skyrocketed.  And considering that Canada and US have a more or less good trading thing going on...so not that good.  Not for the US and not good for Canada.  But Donald thinks otherwise. And all the folk that voted for him this time around think that the economy will get better?  I hope so for their sake. But Elon and Jeff B's billions rose quite a bit upon the announcement of his re-election.  I wonder if those  people that voted for him, I wonder if their wealth also rose instantly?    You poor bastards... You have no idea what is coming to you... (those that voted for him.  With the excemption of the rich of course)     Donnie Rides Again
    • For Apple Users, if you have been thinking of a new iPhone, laptop, etc. you might want to consider buying before President 47 takes office. Tim Cook is going to have a headache if the 60% Tariff is put in place on Chinese goods. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/other/apple-s-tim-cook-is-going-to-have-a-headache-on-his-hands-if-donald-trump-follows-through-on-tariffs-this-time-around/ar-AA1tHffz?ocid=BingHp01&cvid=3b1a78ed0bd4445b8ca292e4aeb8cc1a&ei=53
