A recall of over 480,000 vehicles & cost of up to $18 billion was suggested. $18 billion may have seemed high, but Volkswagen may have to pay for more than just the recall.
Bannister Law in Australia, has filed two class action lawsuits: “... strong case for the owners of affected diesel vehicles to claim a full refund or other compensation under consumer law. The value of car owners' vehicles has been diminished through no fault of their own and people should be compensated ..." – Bannister Law principal, Charles Bannister – AAP/Business Spectator

Remember Bendgate – claims, including video, that the iPhone 6+ was bending in users’ pockets.
Consumer Reports settled the question with objective testing of the forces required to bend the iPhone 6 & 6+, as well as a range of other phones, including HTC One (M8), LGG3, Apple iPhone 5 & Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Short answer was, “... any of these phones should stand up to typical use.”
Now a claim has surfaced, that the Nexus 6P (built by Huawei, to Google’s specification) has bending problems too:
… actually, no scratch that – seems it doesn’t:
As was demonstrated with the iPhone 6, the problem with most of the evidence is that it is unmeasured. Further, in the first 6P test, above, before the phone is bent, it is first subjected to a number of other destructive tests. Perhaps the take home message is, don’t scratch, burn, bend, or break the glass of, your phone./ iOS Apple iPhone 6 Bendgate video claimed to indicate that the iPhone 6+ bending bend bent users’ pockets Consumer Reports objective test forces required bend iPhone 6 6+ range other phones HTC One M8 LG G3 Apple iPhone 5 Samsung Galaxy Note 3 phones stand up typical use Nexus 6P built Huawei Google’s specification Google Andorid OS operating system bending problems scratch demonstrated iPhone 6 problem evidence unmeasured first 6P test bend test phone subjected number destructive tests before being bent don’t scratch break glass burn bend phone smartphone smart phone /

Video shot by the drone was claimed to be relevant to the claim & counter claim about whether the drone came below tree height. Surprising that the judge chose not to look at the video, when presented in evidence.
Perhaps this video sheds some light:

‘Apple Inc. told a federal judge that it “would be impossible” to access user data on a locked iPhone running one of the newer operating systems, but that it could likely help the government unlock an older phone.’ – Wall Street Journal
Tim Cook (Apple CEO) told NPR: ‘But the reality is that if you have an open door in your software for the good guys, the bad guys get in there too.’
And who do you think is he talking about below, later in the same interview? ;)
‘But what they [the customer] don't want to do, they don't want your email to be read, & then to pick up on keywords in your email & then to use that information to then market you things on a different application that you're using ... If you're in our News app, & you're reading something, we don't think that in the News app that we should know what you did with us on the Music app — not to trade information from app to app to app to app.’ – Apple CEO Tim Cook, interviewed by NPR
