Already marred by the recent emission scandal, Volkswagen’s Indian wing will now have to carry out inspection of 389 Polo cars from a single batch of the unit rolled out last month. The inspection will be carried out for preventive repair of the handbrake mechanism.
According to a statement issued by the company, the Quality Assurance vertical of the auto major has discovered that handbreak cable rentention levers in the rear brake liner could break under certain conditions.

“Volkswagen has already identified the cars and has published the repair instructions to the service organisation in India. Customers who own the identified vehicles will be actively contacted by the Volkswagen dealers to come for an inspection and preventive repair. This operation will start with immediate effect. The activity at the workshop will require approximately one hour and will be carried out at no cost to the customer,” said the company.

It added, “The deliveries of the identified Polo cars in stock which had been put on hold yesterday will be resumed as and when the inspection and preventive repair of each car is completed. Volkswagen further confirms that deliveries for the non-impacted Polo range continue as per schedule.”
