Volkswagen suction pump recall alleges ‘frivolous’ lawsuit
Volkswagen said the class action lawsuit based on recalls, warranty extensions, and refunds should be dismissed. December 7, 2024 — The Volkswagen Suction Injection Pump recall should reportedly be enough to end the class-action lawsuit. The Audi and Volkswagen class action lawsuit involves suction injection pumps used to clear fuel from evaporative emissions (EVAP) systems. If the pump fails, fuel can accumulate in the EVAP system and leak through the canister filter. This can cause problems such as fuel spillage or premature stoppage of the fuel nozzles when refueling, as well as fuel odor in the vehicle. The class action lawsuit includes the following vehicles: 2015-2020 Volkswagen Golf 2015-2020 Audi A3 2021-2024 Volkswagen Daos Volkswagen's first recall for suction injection pumps was issued in 2016 and affected the 2015-2016 Volkswagen Golf, Volkswagen Golf SportWagen, Volkswagen GTI, Audi A3 and A3 Convertible.

One of the benefits of owning an electric car is that they have fewer moving parts, so repair and maintenance costs should be lower. But as one Tesla owner discovered, EV hardware isn't invincible and can still be expensive when it breaks down. The reminder came from Cybertruck owner Joey Arrowood, who was staring at an $8,000 bill after discovering his electric pickup was leaking oil. Yes, it’s…
Presidential election tensions spill into the workplace
Managers believe political conflict among colleagues in the United States will only intensify in the wake of a divisive election, a new survey shows. Here are some suggestions for dealing with tensions in the workplace and at events. Author: Curt Wagner Before November 5, one in three voters - more than 75 million people - had cast their vote in this year's hotly contested presidential election. Tensions among constituents led to workplace conflicts.
