The proactive recall action will be applicable to motorcycles sold in India, Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines, Australia & New Zealand and Malaysia.
Royal Enfield on Wednesday said it will recall nearly 2.37 lakh motorcycles of the Classic, Bullet and Meteor models due to a defect in the ignition coil that can cause misfiring, reduced vehicle performance and in rare cases, an electric short circuit. “Royal Enfield has discovered a defect in one of the parts used across some of the motorcycle models that we manufacture and sell… The company will be calling in close to 2,36,966 motorcycles of the Classic, Bullet and Meteor models,” the company said in a statement. It added that the recall will impact Meteor motorcycles manufactured and sold between December 2020 and April 2021, and the Classic and Bullet manufactured and sold between January and April 2021. “These motorcycles will undergo inspection and replacement of the said defective part, if required. We estimate that less than 10% of these motorcycles will require replacement of the part,” it added.More Related News
