Ford Motor on May 21 announced voluntary recall of its Ecosport SUV. Ecosport manufactured between April 2013 and June 2014, and 700 EcoSport models manufactured between January and February 2016 will be part of this recall campaign. As much as 48000 units of ecosport will be called back for the rectification to install a new bundle clip on the fuel and brake lines whereas the 700 units will get new bolts on the split folding rear bench.
"On certain vehicles, the 40% rear seat backrest might have been assembled with bolts that do not meet Ford's material specification, potentially causing the bolts to break," the company said.
The company said that there have been no customer complaints, accidents or injuries as a result of either of these concerns. "Ford India is asking owners of the affected EcoSport vehicles to contact their local Ford dealer so that the necessary rework can be carried out, free of charge," it added..
