Fiat-Chrysler caught cheating on diesel emmissions

How did Cummins get dragged into this thread?

My 2011 6.7L has had no emission related issues but it only has 40,000 miles on it.

My 7.5 6.7L had major emission problems when new. In the shop monthly for the first year and a half. Three turbos, sensors, cleanings etc. Since that time its been trouble free with 120,000 miles on it now. Hopefully those emission troubles are gone.

Whew! So glad this doesn't impact the Cummins motors, otherwise this thread would just become another brand pissing match.....

I wonder if the EPA still pursues this once the Trump admin takes over. The incoming EPA chief, Scott Pruitt, is not a big fan of the agency or their regulations.

This has nothing to do whatsoever with Cummins. The 5.9 and 6.7 are not affected.

104,0000 vehicles affected one estimate,( it includes Jeep) and it appears to be emissions cheating, I suspect FCA may have to do a Mitsubishi and sell to another Automaker, as the cost will be an estimated $5Billion

The emissions cheating in the 1500s and jeeps are not a Cummins engine

No criminal or civil prosecution at present, though one could reasonably conclude Sergio may be writing a big check to the Feds soon......

Roughly US 5 Billion,but FCA cannot afford that
