Urgent Maruti Suzuki Recall: Over 16,000 Wagon R and Baleno Hatchbacks Affected in India

Maruti Suzuki India has initiated a recall for over 16,000 units of its popular hatchback models, the Wagon R and Baleno. This recall targets vehicles manufactured between July 30, 2019, and November 01, 2019, due to a potential issue with a component in the fuel pump motor.

What’s the Problem?

The recall stems from a suspected defect in a part of the fuel pump motor. This faulty component could lead to engine stalling or difficulty starting the engine in affected vehicles. While Maruti Suzuki hasn’t specified the exact nature of the defect, it’s crucial to address this issue to ensure smooth engine operation and overall vehicle safety.

Which Models and Engine Variants are Included?

The recall encompasses 11,851 units of the Maruti Wagon R and 4,190 units of the Maruti Baleno. It’s important to note that Maruti Suzuki hasn’t clarified which specific engine variants of the Wagon R are included in the recall. The Baleno, however, comes with only a single 1.2-liter naturally aspirated engine option.

What Maruti Suzuki is Doing

Maruti Suzuki dealerships across India will be proactively contacting owners of the impacted vehicles to schedule a service appointment. This service will involve a thorough inspection of the fuel pump motor and a free replacement of the faulty component if necessary.

What Wagon R and Baleno Owners Should Do

Here’s what owners of the potentially affected Maruti Wagon R and Baleno models can do:

Check for Recall Status: Visit the “Imp Customer Info” section on the Maruti Suzuki website (https://www.marutisuzuki.com/). Enter your car’s chassis number (starting with MA3/MBJ/MBH followed by 14 digits) to see if your vehicle is part of the recall.

Schedule a Service Appointment: If your car falls under the recall, contact your nearest authorized Maruti Suzuki dealership to schedule a service appointment for inspection and potential replacement of the fuel pump motor component. This service will be completely free of charge.

Hold Off on Extensive Driving: While there’s no official confirmation regarding the safety of driving recalled vehicles, it’s advisable to minimize driving and prioritize getting your car inspected at the earliest.
