Honda to recall nearly 60,000 cars in India

On February 17, the Indian unit of Honda Motor Co. said it will recall 57,853 units of the City sedan to replace a faulty part as part of a global exercise. Honda will replace the lost motion spring in the valve train in City cars manufactured between November 2008 and December 2009 free of cost by informing customers directly, Honda Siel Cars India Ltd. said. This will be the second recall of City sedans in about a year. In January last year, the automaker recalled 8,532 City sedans manufactured in 2007 to replace defective power window switches that could cause a fire. (February 18, 2011)
