Are there too many recalls from Maruti these days.

Or is it just that only Maruti cares enough to issue a recall?

Maybe that's because of volumes and made to meet a price. The steering unit might be from a certain vendor and certain batch which had the problem. In any case, its a good thing that manufacturer is addressing it proactively.

2555 units out 7000 sales per month. The recall is sizeable but should be seen as a proactive step by Maruti.

Shocked to see that the cheapest new car on sale is only the 20th best selling model in July 2024. How the economies have changed since yesteryears!
