With 2019 coming to a close, an estimated 3.25 lakh recalls were made by car and bike manufacturers this year, making it the highest in three years.
More than a dozen manufacturers of motorcycles, cars and sports utility vehicles (SUVs) have announced recalls in 2019, which was higher by 30 percent compared to 2018 and four times compared to 2017.
The recalls were made to address critical issues such as untimely inflation of airbags or a malfunction in its deployment, fuel leakage, loss in braking power, burst of gas generator, faulty installation of CNG filter assembly, incorrect speed reading abnormal vibrations, issues with wiring harness and batteries and less critical ones like software update to name a few.
Maruti Suzuki topped the charts with little over 1.07 lakh recalls of its popular models such as Baleno, Wagon R, Ertiga and Ciaz. Ford followed with nearly 53,000 recalls of Figo, Freestyle, Aspire and Endeavor. In 2018, Maruti Suzuki recalled 61,300 units.
