Renault's Involvement in the Emissions Scandal

Following the Volkswagen scandal, investigations extended to other manufacturers. In 2016, Renault faced a criminal investigation in France over suspected breaches of emissions regulations.


Regulators discovered abnormal levels of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from several of Renault's diesel engines. 


Further tests indicated that models like the Renault Clio and Captur emitted significantly higher pollutants during real-world driving compared to official test conditions.

Diesel Deception: What Really Happened?

Back in 2015, the Volkswagen "Dieselgate" scandal sent shockwaves through the car industry. It turned out that car manufacturers had been using "defeat devices" to cheat emissions tests, making their vehicles seem cleaner in the lab than they actually were on the road. 

 

These cars were actually pumping out far more pollution than legally allowed. 

 

This scandal didn’t just damage Volkswagen’s reputation—it also put other manufacturers, like Renault, under the spotlight.

Frequently Asked Questions

How did Renault allegedly cheat emissions tests?

Renault is accused of using “defeat devices," which are software programs that detect when a vehicle is undergoing emissions testing. These devices artificially lower emissions during lab tests but allow the vehicle to produce much higher NOx emissions in real-world driving conditions.

How does the emissions scandal impact my vehicle’s value?

Cars involved in emissions scandals tend to lose their resale value due to lower public trust and potential future repair or recall costs. If you own an affected Renault, you might struggle to sell it at a fair price, making compensation even more important.

Has Renault admitted to any wrongdoing?

Renault denies using illegal defeat devices but has been fined and investigated in multiple countries. In 2021, French prosecutors charged Renault with deception over emissions data, showing the seriousness of the case.

Will my claim affect my car warranty or insurance?

No, making a claim won’t impact your vehicle’s warranty, insurance, or road tax. The claim is a legal process against Renault, not against your insurer or the DVLA.

Can I claim against Renault and other manufacturers at the same time?

Yes! If you owned multiple diesel vehicles from different manufacturers, you may be eligible for multiple claims. Each case is separate, so check your eligibility for all your diesel vehicles.
