Did you purchase trucks between 1998 and 2014?

It is highly likely that these vehicles were affected by the truck cartel. You may be entitled to compensation of 8-15% of the purchase price. We verify and pursue these claims for you, with no cost or risk.

HISTORY:

The truck cartel operated from 1997 to 2011 among several European heavy-duty truck manufacturers who illegally fixed prices during this period. As a result of this cartel, customers of MAN, SCANIA, DAIMLER, DAF, IVECO, VOLVO, and RENAULT are entitled to financial compensation, as encouraged by the European Commission in its press release.




Based on several rulings from the German Federal Court of Justice, the affected companies can claim damages amounting to approximately 8% to 15% of the truck's price, including interest. As our client, you bear no financial risk, as we collaborate with several litigation funders who take on the risk and cover all incurred costs.

Which vehicles are eligible?

You may be eligible for compensation for each truck if the following criteria are met:

• Purchased between 1998 and 2014

• Purchased as a new vehicle

• Minimum weight of 6 tons

• Minimum purchase price of 30,000 EUR

• Trucks from the following brands: MAN, SCANIA, DAIMLER, DAF, IVECO, VOLVO, and RENAULT

• All European Union countries

• Regardless of financing method: purchase, lease, hire-purchase, or long-term rental (minimum 24 months)

• Regardless of vehicle condition (active, inactive, accident-damaged, sold, or returned after leasing)
  

If your vehicles meet these conditions, we help you assert your rights at no cost or risk—this process does not affect your supplier/dealer.
