If you have bought or leased any of the above diesel vehicles first registered between 2008 and 2020, you may be entitled to claim up to £10,000
Diesel emission scandals have already affected many car manufactures and some have had to pay out millions or even billions in compensation.
The Fiat Chrysler Group is now under investigation for allegedly fitting illegal emission defeat devices to hundreds of thousands of their diesel vehicles.
In a similar case in the US, Fiat Chrysler has already paid millions of dollars to its customers.
The diesel engines affected were used in Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Jeep, Iveco and Suzuki vehicles. Whilst Suzuki is not a subsidiary of the Fiat Chrysler Group, certain of their vehicles are equipped with Fiat Chrysler diesel engines which have been found to exceed emissions limits.
We believe Fiat Chrysler’s customers could be entitled up to £10,000 per affected vehicle, however, we are aiming to win back the entire cost of each vehicle.
If you ever owned or leased a diesel vehicle from Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Jeep, Iveco or Suzuki, first registered between 2008 and 2020, then you may be able to claim.
Customers who owned more than one vehicle that meets the description above can make multiple claims.
We believe Fiat Chrysler deliberately misled customers about the amount of emissions these vehicles produced and believe customers should be compensated for the following reasons:
We believe Fiat Chrysler has broken the trust of their customers, just like other manufacturers such as Mercedes and Volkswagen.
We believe affected customers should be compensated for the wrong-doings of Fiat Chrysler, just as they were in the United States.
Join the group action and you may be able to claim back £10,000 or potentially even the entire purchase price of your vehicle.
Fiat Chrysler misled owners about the performance of their vehicles. As a result, your vehicle may have been less efficient than expected and may have cost you more in fuel and maintenance.
Fiat Chrysler's defeat devices led to increased levels of toxic nitrogen dioxide pollution. These harmful emissions worsen respiratory conditions and reduce life expectancy.

Fiat Chrysler are under investigation for allegedly fitting illegal emissions defeat devices to hundreds of thousands of their cars and vans.
If you ever owned or leased one of the affected diesel vehicles, you could be eligible for significant compensation.
We believe Fiat Chrysler deliberately misled customers about the amount of emissions these vehicles produced and believe customers should be compensated for the following reasons:
Affected customers should be compensated for the wrong-doings of Fiat Chrysler, just as they were in the United States Volkswagen claim.
We will strive to win you as much as possible and are aiming to recover the entire cost of your vehicle. The exact amount will be decided by the Court.
Fiat Chrysler has agreed to pay approximately $800 million in penalties and compensation to settle similar claims in the United States.
We are, therefore, optimistic that we may be able to obtain damages of up to £10,000 or more per vehicle.
It’s completely free to sign up and join the claim. You will be asked to enter into a “no win, no fee” agreement with us.
Under the terms of this agreement, we will only ever take a cut to pay our fees and expenses, as well as those of barristers, funders and insurers, if the case is successful. The exact amount will depend upon how long the case takes, how much time the lawyers need to spend on it, and the level of compensation obtained.
We are unique in capping our fees at a maximum of 50% inclusive of VAT, though the actual fee may be as low as 20%. At PGMBM our goal is to claim back the entire purchase price of the car for you.
If you bought or leased any of the following diesel vehicles first registered between 2008 and 2020, then you are likely able to claim: Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Jeep, Iveco or Suzuki.

We are passionate about winning this case and are determined to hold Fiat Chrysler to account.
We are currently one of the lead firms in similar group claims against Volkswagen and Mercedes, and we represent tens of thousands of clients.
By joining our group claim you have the best chance of getting compensation and we make sure the whole process simple and straightforward.
We do everything for you and make your claim easy and stress free. We operate on a “no win, no fee” basis, and cap our fees at a maximum of 50%.
We’re going to run this case as a group action, meaning that we run all of our clients’ cases under one “umbrella”. This makes it easier to move all the cases forward together instead of doing them one at a time.
If we don’t win compensation for you, and provided you keep to the terms of the agreement, then you won’t pay a penny. We protect you against any costs that Fiat Chrysler may incur by taking out an insurance policy known as After-The-Event (ATE) insurance that covers all of the costs if the case isn’t successful.
This is not as straightforward as some other cases like personal injury or PPI. The deduction has 3 elements in it: first the success fee, because we are sharing the risk of the case with you. Don’t forget we don’t get paid anything if we lose. Second, any potential shortfall of our costs that Fiat Chrysler don’t pay. Third, the cost of the ATE policy that needs to be paid.
We call this type of insurance Before-The-Event (BTE) insurance because you’ll have had it in place before this claim started. It’s worth checking for Legal Expense policies however, they will usually not cover a car purchase from this long ago. They usually don’t cover group action either.
When we send out all the documents at the start of the case, we’ll send out a questionnaire about this and contact any insurers you have policies with to see if this can be used.
Our case is distinct from PPI cases. PPI cases usually follow years of investigation by financial regulation authorities and multiple drawn out court cases. As a claimant in this case, you are part of the initial case being put forward against Fiat Chrysler.
We cannot guarantee a timescale for this group action but we will aim to proceed your claim as expediently as possible.
