Ford recalls diesel variant of EcoSport

US auto major Ford on Thursday said it was recalling the diesel variant of its new compact SUV EcoSport in India to correct defects in the instrument used as an aid in starting the engine. "As part of routine checks, we discovered a potential concern with EcoSport diesel variants related to the Glow Plug Module which requires relocating the module. We are contacting customers to take their vehicle to their Ford dealership to have the work carried out," Ford India said. The company did not disclose the number of vehicles it was recalling. Ford, present in the country through a wholly owned subsidiary, added no accidents or injuries had been reported. Ford had launched the much-awaited SUV in India last month with price starting at Rs 5.59 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).
