Jaguar Land Rover diesel particulate filter (DPF) claim

What is the Jaguar Land Rover diesel particulate filter claim?

The Land Rover and Jaguar diesel particulate filter claims are being brought on behalf of those who leased or purchased Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles with diesel engines between 2015 and 2023. The claims could be worth thousands of pounds in compensation for each affected vehicle

Monitoring shows that Jaguar Land Rover has fitted certain diesel vehicles with "defective diesel particulate filter systems (DPF) systems". These DPF Issues may have impacted the safety and environmental performance of the vehicle.

Affected vehicles may need to be serviced more frequently, and in some cases, even require a new engine. Reports from our clients confirm that a potentially defective DPF system has led to warning lights coming on in their vehicles regularly, general performance issues, costly repairs, and in some cases, engine damage. If the DPF system is defective, research suggests that the vehicle is also likely to have a lower re-sale value. 

The DPF system is built to regenerate and clean any excess build-up of soot and pollutants in the vehicle exhaust. A defective DPF system will fail to correctly regenerate, clogging the system and decreasing the engine performance of the vehicle. Soot also contributes to air pollution meaning the vehicles are less likely to meet advertised environmental standards.
