I caught a glimps of that story. Apparently the comuter was programmed to fool testing to make it seem like everything was compliant with emission standards. Sounds like a VW program for emissions control.
Obviously the manufacturers are pretty desperate and otherwise unable to meet the ever-tightening noose of CARB and EPA. Government can't get out of the way. These officials have never done anything productive but they're going to gut Cummins. It's disgraceful. Jail whoever is responsible if you must, but don't torch the company.
Way too much control here that needs to be put in check.. just putting it lightly.
The funny thing about the whole "dieselgate" debacle is that everyone was doing the same thing. Volkswagen was just the first to get caught, and the government decided to make an example of them.
Let's think critically for a minute. If everyone had to cheat to meet the EPA standard, was the standard ever realistic to begin with?
