Nebraska dealer violated Clean Air Act By fitting delete kits to up to 20 different vehicles that removed legally-required emissions equipment
A Ford dealer in Nebraska has been hit with a $40k fine for deleting emissions equipment from diesel trucks. Moody Motor Co from Niobrara bought delete kits from Diesel Performance of Texas and fitted them to up to 20 trucks between 2019 and 2022, the EPA says. The delete kits removed legally-required emissions tech from the trucks, violating the Clean Air Act.

One of the deleted trucks belonged to a relative of a Moody employee, who said he performed the mod because the truck was a trade-in and needed multiple sensors replaced.
