VW deceived customers like us on emissions. It must face the consequences | Letters

21 April is the deadline that Judge Breyer has set for VW to respond to the scandal caused by installing "defeat devices" to evade emissions regulations on 567,000 "clean diesel" cars sold in the US (VW emissions cheat software came from Audi - report, 20 April).

As owners of a diesel Jetta, we have been waiting for VW to respond for seven months since the scandal broke. The defeat device eliminates the reason we purchased the car: low-emission "clean transport". In buying it we relied on VW's compliance with regulations and the company's "clean diesel" advertising.
