TIL Desk/Business/New Delhi-Franco-Japanese auto alliance Renault-Nissan is recalling nearly 51,000 units of two entry level cars, Renault Kwid and Datsun redi-GO in India to rectify faulty fuel system and add a hose clip. While Renault India is recalling around 50,000 units of its bestseller Kwid, Nissan is calling back 932 units of Datsun redi-Go which was launched in June this year.
Renault India said it is conducting a pre-emptive and voluntary inspection of select 0.8 L variants (800cc) of Kwid that were produced up to May 18, 2016 from October 2015. “As a proactive measure, a fuel hose clip will be added to these select cars along with the evaluation of overall functionality of the fuel system to mitigate any potential disruption of fuel supply,” the company said in a statement.
The affected cars will be inspected without any cost to the customers and carry out necessary measures, if required, it said. “We are in the process of contacting customers, requesting them to come to dealerships to get their cars inspected,” it added.
