Maruti Suzuki to recall 13,157 diesel cars

07 Apr 2011 Evaluate

Maruti Suzuki India (MSIL), the country’s largest car maker would recall 13,157 diesel cars manufactured between November 13 and December 4, 2010, to examine a possible faulty engine part. The recall will include 4,505 units of Swift Dzire, 6,841 units of Swift and 1,811 units of Ritz. It does not include any exported car. The company will inspect a connecting rod bolt in these cars and if it is found defective, the company will replace the component free of cost. The new part has already been dispatched to dealer workshops and the dealers would contact car owners.

The Swift, Swift Dzire and Ritz are among MSIL’s best-selling cars, constituting around a quarter of its sales. Maruti sells 12,000 units of Swift, 10,000 units of Dzire and 6,000 units of Ritz a month. The diesel variants make up nearly half of these cars’ sales. MSIL in February last year had recalled 100,000 units of hatchback A-Star from domestic and overseas markets. It had recalled the cars to fix faulty fuel pump gaskets and O-ring, which could leak if the fuel tank is filled to the brim.crackcrack
