PT Indomobil Suzuki International, the Indonesian branch of Japanese car-maker Suzuki, plans to recall 14,452 cars in Indonesia due to mechanical problem in the transmission system, local press said Friday.
The recall affects 9,954 Aerio hatchbacks manufactured in 2002-06 and 4,498 Baleno sedans produced in 2003-06, reported leading economic daily Bisnis Indonesia.
Indomobil said the recall aims to replace some small parts in the transmission system that are potentially broken due to unexpected frictions with the gear housing.
Indomobil spokesman Priyo Kurnianto told the daily the free repair would take only one hour per car.
