Italian luxury car maker Ferrari will recall 621 imported vehicles in China due to defective airbags, the country's top quality watchdog said today.
The recall, set to begin on September 15, affects Italia- series cars made between March 1, 2010 and September 30, 2011, and California-series vehicles manufactured between April 1, 2009 and June 30, 2011, according to the website of the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine.
When the airbags of the affected vehicles inflate, the gas generators inside may become damaged and cause flying debris, posing safety risks to passengers, said the statement.
Ferrari has promised to check all affected vehicles and replace the defective parts free of charge, the official Xinhua news agency reported.
China is one of the biggest markets for Ferrari.
