Now Maruti Suzuki recalls A-Star cars from Europe

In Germany alone, 9,244 ‘Alto’ cars have been recalled voluntarily by Suzuki for inspection after some irregularities were detected in the fuel tanks of some cars, a Suzuki International Europe spokesperson told PTI. It has been noticed that the fuel tanks in some cars could become less tight in the area of fuel pump after a certain period of driving.

Therefore, the gaskets of the fuel pump will be examined at Suzuki’s service stations and repaired or replaced if needed at the company’s costs, he said. Around 100,000 ‘Suzuki Alto’ cars sold across Europe since December 2008 are reported to be affected by the recall.
The official added that the cars are being recalled as a precautionary measure and there were no complaints from customers or accidents.
