Dive Brief:
Volvo Group North America will pay nearly $197 million to settle an emissions violation case with the California Air Resources Board, according to a May 18 press release.
CARB alleged that 10,000 Volvo model year 2010-2016 trucks used auxiliary emission control devices that were not disclosed during California’s required emissions certification process, in violation of the state’s heavy-duty engine regulations.
As part of the settlement, Volvo Group will extend a partial warranty and make software updates available for about 7,200 model year 2014-2016 engines in California. The company is not admitting liability.
