GM has no regrets over the recall of its 58000 vehicles in South Korea. Further it will not have any impact on the sale in India. GM had recalled 45957 units of Winstorm SUV and 12064 units of Lacetti Premiere compact sedans. The recall was due to the faults in steering wheels and fuel hoses. This Winstorm is Chevrolet Captiva and Lacetti is Chevrolet Cruze in India and other markets. The recall is applied on only the left hand drive cars and hence it is not applicable for the cars in India, said GM’s VP for India.
Captiva is a CBU from Korea but the story of recall in 2006 and 2007 hit the sale of Captiva, and the same occurred for Cruze in 2009-10. Cruze is now designed domestically in Talegaon plant. GM justifies its recalls on the footsteps of Toyota, Honda, VW, Suzuki, Nissan, Hyundai, Citreon and Peugeot. These companies are not bothered much over the meager recalls in India.
