June 24, 2019—Daimler must recall 60,000 Mercedes diesel cars in Germany after regulators found that they were fitted with software aimed at distorting emissions tests, according to a report by Reuters.
Germany’s Bild am Sonntag, which first reported the recall on Saturday, had reported in April that the German auto regulator was looking into suspicious software in the Mercedes-Benz GLK 220 CDI cars produced between 2012 and 2015.
That occured after tests showed the Mercedes models only meet emissions limits when a certain function is activated.
