SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Attorney Advertising. Keller Rohrback L.L.P. filed a class action lawsuit July 28, 2017 in the United States District Court for Northern District of California against five German automakers (BMW, Daimler/Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Audi, and Porsche) alleging a collusion scheme that enriched the automakers while stifling innovation and deceiving consumers and government regulators. Keller Rohrback seeks to represent a nationwide class of persons who purchased or leased a Class Vehicle manufactured by BMW, Daimler/Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Audi, or Porsche in the United States.
In the wake of reports that backroom dealings between these automakers allegedly included collusion in “the development of cars, costs, suppliers and markets,” the complaint alleges that defendants met secretly to avoid competing with each other as to certain aspects of their vehicles, resulting in slower innovation and other damage to consumers. Regulators continue to investigate the contours and depths of the alleged improprieties and potential collusion in the German auto industry, including this news about Audi: (http://fortune.com/2017/08/05/audi-added-german-diesel-emission-investigation/)
