In an another possible diesel emission case, The Environmental and Natural Resources Division of the US Department of Justice (DOJ-ENRD) has filed a lawsuit against Fiat Chrysler for using software defeat devices in nearly 104,000 Ram 1500 and Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles (Model Years 2014-2016) with 3.0-liter diesel engines. A notice was served by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to Ford Chrysler in January 2017, over the alleged violations of the Clean Air Act. Ford Chrysler said that it intends to fight its case vigorously but is also committed to working with EPA and California Air Resources Board (CARB) to solve the issue as soon as possible.
