Volkswagen on Thursday Oct 08,2015 recalled 389 units of its best selling premium
hatchback Polo in India, manufactured in September 2015, to
rectify faulty handbrake.
"In the context of a voluntary safety measure, Volkswagen Passenger Cars in India is calling 389 Polo cars from a single batch of production from the month of September 2015 for inspection and preventive repair of the handbrake mechanism," Volkswagen India said in a statement.
The company's quality assurance department has determined that under certain conditions, the handbrake mechanism would lose effectiveness, it added.
"The analysis performed by Volkswagen has shown that a batch of handbrake cable retention levers in the rear brake liner might break under certain conditions," it said.
Customers who own the identified vehicles will be actively contacted by the Volkswagen dealers to come for an inspection and preventive repair. This operation will start with immediate effect, the company said, adding it would be carried out at no cost to the customer
