It&#x27;s getting worse every day for VW it seems. First a limited range of diesel engines, then a whole bunch more, then the gasoline engines. Now this very transparent ploy at distancing. I hope they do realize that it isn&#x27;t fooling anybody and that if nobody steps forward it doesn&#x27;t prove a thing. They&#x27;re in heap of trouble. It&#x27;s interesting how those &#x27;workers&#x27; had absolutely nothing to gain except continued employment from this whole saga and the VW management and stockholders had lots to gain.<p>If anything there should be whole slew of emails documenting this feature and its reasons for existence and who authorized this. VW &#x27;asking&#x27; is tantamount to them saying they still don&#x27;t know how this whole thing happened which is fairly incredible.<p>It&#x27;s quite something to watch an industry giant flail like this, when Mercedes had their A-class debacle they got the story under control relatively quickly, VW seems to go from a certain level of bad to something even worse every time I read the news.
