Customers can also check with their local Hyundai dealership or call 1800-114-645 to determine if their Creta or Verna is included in the recall.


Safety Advice and Engine Options


It is advisable for owners to promptly check if their vehicle is affected by the recall and schedule an inspection if necessary for optimal vehicle performance.  Recently, Kia India too, recalled a batch consisting of 4,300 units of the Seltos SUV for a similar issue.
