Proton recalls 34,000 Savvy cars
PETALING JAYA: Proton is recalling its Savvy cars over a possible problem with regards to the car’s rear-wheel bearing.
The company said a recent inspection has brought to its attention that water could get into the bearing, which could lead to a malfunction.
“The safety and satisfaction of our customers is a primary concern. As a precautionary measure, we are recalling all Savvy’s for inspection and repair,” Proton managing director Datuk Syed Zainal Abidin Syed Mohamed said in a press statement.
The recall will affect a total of 34,000 cars. All Savvy owners are advised to take their cars to the nearest Proton Edar or EON service branch for an inspection.
Proton said it would conduct the necessary checks and replacements at no cost to the customer.
