National truck rental company Penske will pay at least $3 million for not fully and lawfully conducting 189 safety and emissions inspections on trucks, under a lawsuit settlement announced by Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell.
In 2021, Campbell’s office lodged an action in Massachusetts state court alleging that certain Penske inspectors had both failed to properly conduct 129 safety inspections and conducted at least 123 fraudulent emissions inspections on fleet vehicles, including heavy-duty diesel-powered trucks that weigh more than 10,000 pounds, according to a news release about the settlement by Campbell’s office.
