That's not really anything like dieselgate. Washing machines, I would hope, aren't emitting toxic gases that kill people. It is, perhaps, a little deceptive if people believe their machines are more efficient than they really are on the commonly used cycles. The way to solve this would be to improve the efficiency tests so that they test the efficiency of a fast cycle as well as an economy/long cycle.
