Now, the German carmaker has revealed plans to recall all the vehicles affected by the ongoing scandal.
According to the newly appointed CEO, Matthias Müller, a “comprehensive’’ refit plan has already been drawn and will be submitted to regulators, who will ensure that it abides by emissions standards.
Volkswagen spokesman, Christian Buhlmann, tells The Wall Street Journal, "[this will be] the biggest service action in the company’s history, " referring to the 11 million affected diesel-powered vehicles.
This is being done in order to meet the October 7 deadline set to bring diesel emissions into line with the law.

“We are facing a long trudge and a lot of hard work. We will only be able to make progress in steps and there will be setbacks. The new company structure is a first step and the basis for a modernisation of VW, for a new and better company."
