BackMahindra to recall nearly 30,000 vehicles over fluid pipe issues
The inspection and replacement is limited to 29,878 vehicles and will be carried out free of cost, Mahindra said.
PremiumIndian automaker Mahindra and Mahindra said on Tuesday it was inspecting and replacing fluid pipes in some of its pickup trucks made between January 2020 and February 2021 for suspicion of improper assembly.
The inspection and replacement is limited to 29,878 vehicles.
"The inspection and subsequent rectification will be carried out free of cost for all customers, who will be individually contacted by the company. In an endeavour to ensure a hassle-free experience for its customers, the company is proactively carrying out this activity," the auto major said.
The action is also in compliance with voluntary code on vehicle recall.
Last month, the company announced undertaking a proactive inspection and replacement of diesel engines in some of its vehicles manufactured at Nashik factory for suspicion of premature wear of engine parts due to contaminated fuel that was received in the factory on a particular date and was filled in the select batch.
The exercise was for a limited batch of less than 600 vehicles manufactured between June 21 and July 2, 2021 and was keeping in line with the company's customer centric approach, the company had said in July.
In February, the automaker recalled 1,577 units of its SUV Thar with diesel power train to replace faulty camshaft, an engine part.
