India’s leading automaker Mahindra and Mahindra (M&M) said on Tuesday it was inspecting and replacing fluid pipes in some of its pickup trucks made between January 2020 and February 2021 for suspicion of improper assembly.

The company has announced a proactive inspection and replacement of a fluid pipe in some of the pickup vehicles manufactured between January 2020 and February 2021 for suspicion of improper assembly, M&M said. The recall is limited to a batch of 29,878 vehicles and is keeping in line with the company's customer-centric approach, it added. "The inspection and subsequent rectification will be carried out free of cost for all customers, who will be individually contacted by the company.

In a bid to ensure a hassle-free experience for its clients, the company is proactively carrying out this activity," it said. The action is also in compliance with voluntary code on vehicle recall. Last month, the company announced undertaking a proactive inspection and replacement of diesel engines in some of its vehicles manufactured at Nashik factory for suspicion of premature wear of engine parts due to contaminated fuel that was received in the factory on a particular date and was filled in the select batch.
