GM India recalls 101,597 units of Chevrolet Beat Diesel

General Motors India on Tuesday recalled 101,597 units of Chevrolet Beat Diesel which were manufactured between December 2010 and July 2014.

According to the company, it will inspect and, if necessary, replace the clutch pedal lever in the vehicles.

"The clutch pedal lever in these units is susceptible to cracking on continued usage," the company was quoted in a statement as saying.

The company informed that it has started voluntarily notifying owners of the Beat Diesel to take their cars to any of Chevrolet's 248 authorised service centres across India.

"Quality and care are our highest priorities and we are committed to putting customers at the centre of everything we do," the statement said.

"Alternatively, customers can also contact their nearest Chevrolet dealership and schedule an appointment for vehicle inspection and correction."

The company added that it is working closely with its service network to make the entire inspection and correction exercise as smooth as possible.
