Are You a Nissan Diesel Driver? You Might Be Owed £1,000s in Compensation
If you owned or leased a diesel Nissan between 2008 and 2018, there’s something important you should know — and it could be worth thousands of pounds to you.
Investigations are currently underway into whether Nissan installed illegal “defeat devices” in hundreds of thousands of their vehicles. These devices were allegedly used to cheat emissions tests — meaning the cars emit far more pollution on the road than they do in lab tests.
This practice doesn’t just harm the environment. It also misled consumers like you — people who trusted that their car met legal emissions standards when it was sold to them.
Now, UK drivers are taking action. If you're one of them, Diesel Claim UK wants to help you hold Nissan accountable and claim compensation.
What Is the Nissan Emissions Scandal?
In June 2020, claims emerged that Nissan may have fitted "defeat devices" into some of their diesel vehicles. These devices detect when a car is being tested and lower its emissions artificially. But once the car hits real-world roads, the emission controls are allegedly turned off or reduced — leading to dangerously high levels of NOx (Nitrogen Oxide) being released.
NOx is no small matter. It’s linked to respiratory diseases, cancer, acid rain, and smog — making it a serious public health concern.
While similar devices were found in Volkswagen vehicles during the infamous Dieselgate scandal, this time Nissan could be the one in the firing line — and potentially up to 600,000 diesel vehicles in the UK may be involved.
What’s the Claim About?
Drivers who owned or leased an affected Nissan model during the years 2008–2018 may be able to file a compensation claim based on several legal grounds:
-
Deceit or misrepresentation
-
Breach of consumer protection laws
-
Breach of contract
-
Violation of competition laws
In simple terms: if Nissan deceived regulators and customers by suppressing emission technology, you were misled when you bought your car — and you deserve to be compensated for that.
Which Nissan Vehicles Are Potentially Affected?
While investigations are still ongoing, early reports suggest the following models may be impacted:
-
Nissan Qashqai
-
Nissan Juke
-
Nissan X-Trail
-
Nissan Note
All diesel versions manufactured between 2008 and 2018 are under scrutiny. The Nissan Qashqai, in particular, is reported to have emissions up to 15 times above legal limits in real-world conditions.
How Much Could You Claim?
While it’s too early to pinpoint exact figures for the UK, drivers involved in similar diesel claims — including Volkswagen — have received between £1,140 and £7,000 each in compensation in other countries.
