Comment:
My household has 2 2015 VW diesels. My Touareg is ok because it has a Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), a known as urea after-treatment system. My friend with a Golf diesel is on recall. I would ask the ARB to require VW to retrofit their 2 liter diesel with a Selective Catalytic Reduction system and not do the cheaper software reprogram. With the potential fine of 37,500 per offense I would be very disappointed if the ARB and EPA would not negotiate a lesser fine if VW would spend however thousands of dollars the retrofit would cost. Innocent citizens will be hurt by a cheap fix, the big fines will not help us.
