Honda recalls SUVs in China

Xinhua, July 6, 2015 Adjust font size:

Japanese automaker Honda has announced a recall of 2,422 Acura-brand SUVs in China because of a fault that could see a section of the vehicles' air conditioner detach and fall off the underside.

The affected vehicles are imported Acura MDX SUVs manufactured between March 2013 and October 2014, said the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine in a statement on Monday.

A bolt in the air conditioning system may loosen or break, which could cause the air conditioner clutch pulley drive to fall under the vehicle, potentially presenting a hazard to other cars, the statement said.

The company's China branch will replace the faulty parts free of charge from July 25. Endi
