SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC Notifies Investors of Class Action Against Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft (VLKAY, VLKPY) & Lead Plaintiff Deadline - October 30, 2017

NEW YORK, Aug. 29, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Attorney Advertising -- Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC notifies investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft ("Volkswagen" or the "Company") VLKAY : %2)) and certain of its officers, on behalf of a class consisting of investors who purchased Volkswagen securities between March 14, 2013 through July 26, 2017, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period").  Such investors are encouraged to join this case by visiting the firm's site: www.bgandg.com/vlkay.

This class action seeks to recover damages against Defendants for alleged violations of the federal securities laws under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Volkswagen wrongfully colluded with other auto manufacturers on technology and supplier for decades; (2) consequently, Volkswagen's public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

On July 25, 2017, a class action was filed in U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey against Volkswagen, Audi AG, BMW AG, Mercedes-Benz USA, and Porsche AG, alleging violations of federal antitrust laws. Specifically, the complaint alleges that since 2006, the carmakers conspired "to share commercially-sensitive information and reach unlawful agreements" in order "to impose a German automobile premium on consumers premised on superior German engineering, while secretly stunting incentives to innovate." Then on July 28, 2017, a similar complaint was filed in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, and another complaint was filed in the District of New Jersey. Following these revelations, Volkswagen stock dropped, damaging investors.
