Tata Motors Ltd's Subsidiary Jaguar Land Rover's China Unit To Recall Cars Over Safety Worries-Reuters

Reuters reported that Tata Motors Ltd owned Jaguar Land Rover's Chinese subsidiary will recall 337 cars because of substandard fixings in their brakes and steering boxes, China's national product quality watchdog said. The General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine said in a statement on its website that Jaguar Land Rover's China unit is recalling 190 cars of 2012 Evoque and Freelander vehicles produced on June 11, 2012. The agency's statement said the recall was prompted by concerns that substandard fixings in the vehicles' rear brake calipers may lead to brakes failing and sudden tyre deflation. The agency said another 147cars of 2012 Evoque and 2013 Evoque vehicles made between October 20, 2012 and September 18, 2012 will also be recalled due to problems in their steering boxes, which contain security risks.
