Company executives have already admitted their diesel cars have software that cheated on U.S. emission tests.
Volkswagen may also be facing possible criminal charges.
New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman says his office has launched a criminal investigation.
Meanwhile, the CEO of Volkswagen Group, Martin Winterkorn, has announced his resignation.
Winterkorn says that he accepted responsibility for the "irregularities" that had been found in diesel engines and have requested the supervisory board to agree to his resignation as CEO of the company.
The executive committee of Volkswagen AG's supervisory board has announced in a statement that it had great respect for Winterkorn's offer to resign from his position.
Recommendations for new personnel will be presented at the upcoming meeting of the supervisory board this Friday.
