    EPA Accuses FCA (Fiat-Chrysler) of excess Diesel Emissions

      Another Diesel-Dust Issue Emerges 

    WASHINGTON -- The EPA has accused FCA of using similar software as, already found guilty VW, that allowed excess diesel emissions in over 100,000 U.S. trucks and SUVs sold since 2014.

    FCA has declined to comment, and Reuters cites sources that declare that FCA will contest the claims.

    It is common practice for automakers to use secondary emission controls to protect engines from internal damage. When doing so the maker must proclaim and document it to the EPA.

    Currently, Fiat-Chrysler’s 2017 diesels are not certified for sale in the United States, forcing Chrysler to continue selling 2016 models instead.

    On Wednesday, January 11, 2017, Volkswagen was fined $4.3 Billion for criminal and civil violations in misleading regulators and selling vehicles that pollute.

    • IIRC the other founder of Turning Point died of Covid after denying safety steps for covid or something. You can argue morality and logic, but the impacts/results/effects of what you do are objective and real.  A bit of non political fun, this is gorgeous.  If I wasn't turning 60 years old today, I would drive that damn thing. 
    • 100% spot on analysis of Kirk. Yes, the way he died was horrible, no matter what side of the political spectrum on which you stand. However, let us not ignore the man's ACTUAL words and actions that helped fuel the "radicalization" of certain factions in this country and create this exact scenario where someone decided to take matters into their own armed hands. Ten years of pure madness fueled by one giant narcissistic A-Hole in D.C.
    • This guy gets the toxic state of America right on so many levels. it's pretty much cooked.  Drew feel free to delete this if need be. 
    • I like a lot of this guys analysis, he explains well why American manufacturing is declining at a greater and greater pace and why jobs are moving away from the United States.   
    • I love when it our Prime Ministers are passionate about hockey!!!     https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6619565/2025/09/11/hockey-connor-mcdavid-mark-carney-canada-extension/   “Let’s face it. We are in a crisis,” Carney said. “The global trading system has been upended. Supply chains have been destroyed. McDavid is unsigned. This is not a transition. This is a rupture. It’s in times like these you have to draw back in and remember what you have. Draisaitl. Hyman. Nugent-Hopkins. We’ve got to draw on those strengths. We’ve got to draw on those values.     “And Connor, if there’s anything we can do in the upcoming budget. We’re spending less, we’re going to invest more so we can bring that Cup back to Canada.”
