S Korea orders recall of 125,500 VW cars

AFP

AFP, SEOUL: The South Korean government yesterday said  it had ordered Volkswagen to recall 125,500 diesel vehicles, after tests confirmed the German automaker had faked emissions results from the cars’ engines.
Announcing the results of the tests, the Environment Ministry also said it was fining the company 14.1 billion won ($12.3 million).
Volkswagen should submit its detailed recall plans including how to improve emissions of the cars in question to the ministry by January 6, it said in a statement. The vehicles were mostly those sold in South Korea between 2008 and 2015, and included the popular Tiguan model.
The world’s biggest carmaker by sales has admitted that up to 11 million diesel cars worldwide are fitted with devices that can switch on pollution controls when they detect the car is undergoing testing.
