Suzuki Announces Jimny Recall in Australia

Suzuki Pastikan Jimny 3-Door di Indonesia Aman Dari Recall

RiderTua.com – Suzuki’s SUV, the Jimny, is still well received in its market so far. Both 3-door and 5-door models are in high demand in the market. However, recently the Suzuki Jimny received a recall in Australia after a potential problem was discovered with the fuel pump. It is feared that this withdrawal will also spread to other countries such as Indonesia.

Suzuki Jimny Recalled in Australia Due to Fuel Pump Problems

Suzuki car sales in recent years have remained quite stable, with Jimny being one of the contributors. Even though it is only produced in two countries, this SUV has received a lot of demand in a number of countries, including Indonesia. The 3-door and 5-door models are widely welcomed by consumers and always sell well in the market.

Even with its good sales performance, models like the Jimny are not free from potential problems with their components. As has just been discovered by Suzuki, the fuel pump part of this model is said to have potential fuel distribution problems in the car. This occurs due to a manufacturing defect, and this problem can be very annoying because the car engine cannot work properly.

Is Indonesia Also Affected?

This problem was discovered on the Jimny 3-door model sold in Australia, so Suzuki sent a recall notification to affected car owners. Of course, this recall was carried out as proof that the quality of the car was in doubt, but rather as a responsibility of the manufacturer towards the manufacturer. Although this fuel pump problem occurs due to a production defect from the manufacturer.

Because the affected models are models that are also sold in Indonesia, there is a possibility that this recall could spread more widely. But for now Suzuki wants to wait for further decisions from the principal. If the model has to be withdrawn, they will do it.

This fuel pump problem does not only affect Suzuki. Other brands such as Toyota and Honda also experienced similar problems and carried out a recall about two years ago in Indonesia.
