Published Updated

India's biggest carmaker Maruti Suzuki announced its second recall in just over a year on Wednesday, saying more than 13,000 diesel models would be checked for a possibly faulty engine component. The manufacturer, which is majority owned by Japan's Suzuki Motor Corp, said the recall applies to 13,157 cars whose engines were manufactured between November 13 and December 4 last year.
"We will inspect the connecting rod bolt for the Swift, Swift Dzire and Ritz cars," the company said in a statement, adding that this component will be replaced free if found to be defective.
