Maruti Suzuki Is Recalling 1.5 Lakh Dzire Models

This is not the first time Maruti Suzuki is recalling one of its car models. They have just recalled 1.5 lakh Swift Dzire models, which were manufactured in the year 2013-14. This is one of the biggest recalls by any Indian automobile manufacturer.

The recall is due to a fault in the neck of the fuel filler in Maruti Suzuki Swift Dzire that came out in the last fiscal. The unsold models with the dealers have also be recalled and the faulty part, which is produced by JBM group (in which Maruti has a stake as well), will be replaced for no costs to the owners.

Before this Maruti Suzuki had recalled 1 lakh units of A-star in 2010. Ford had also recalled Figo and Classic last year to replace faulty rear suspension and power steering. Auto recalls are a common phenomenon around the world and is practiced to keep the drivers and passengers safe. It is good to see that some of the Indian auto makers are doing the same to prevent any road mishaps.
