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.
