July 22, 2020 Investigations by the finance guard of Turin against some companies of the FCA group. The activity was ordered by the prosecutor of the Piedmontese capital in agreement with the Frankfurt prosecutor, who investigates for commercial fraud. The hypothesis is that some models would have been installed devices that do not comply with the European regulation, so that the polluting emissions would be higher than those detectable in the homologation.

The transaction also involves Switzerland and is carried out in collaboration with Eurojust.

The automotive holding confirms that some investigations were carried out by the judicial authorities in some European offices of the group in the context of an international letter rogatory requested by the German judiciary.

"The company immediately made itself available to the investigators - specifies a spokesman - and provided extensive collaboration in the investigations". FCA for its part "is examining the relevant documents to be able to clarify any request from the judiciary".
