More About The Recall 

Maruti Suzuki has recalled 39,506 units of the Grand Vitara that have been manufactured between December 9, 2024 and April 29, 2025. The carmaker said that the fuel gauge and the low fuel warning light might not accurately display the fuel status. While it is not a serious concern, we would advise owners to maintain sufficient fuel in the vehicle and have this part replaced at the earliest. 

What Happens Next? 

Maruti Suzuki said that it will be contacting affected owners to drop off their vehicles at their nearest service centre. The part will be inspected and, if needed, will be replaced at no extra cost. Alternatively, owners can check if their vehicle has been affected or not by entering their Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on this link. 

It must be noted that this isn’t the first recall for the Grand Vitara. Previously, the compact SUV was called back due to faulty rear seatbelt mounting brackets.

What Is A Recall? 

A recall is basically when the manufacturer detects some issue or quality defect with the vehicle and calls it back for an inspection / free part replacement. While it might put down some owners, we appreciate manufacturers taking this initiative as the main aim is to ensure the vehicle runs in its optimum condition. If your vehicle is part of a recall, we would recommend getting it inspected and having the affected part replaced.
