Japanese automaker Toyota Kirloskar Motors has issued a recall of the Urban Cruiser Hyryder and Glanza due to an issue with the airbag controller.

Reason for the recall

As mentioned above, Toyota suspects that a possible defect in the airbag assembly controller may lead to the airbags not deploying in the event of a crash. As of now, there have been no reported failures of the affected part. However, the vehicles will be recalled and inspected. If the part in question is found to be faulty it will be replaced free of cost.

Being a part that directly affects occupant safety, Toyota has requested owners of the cars included in the recall to avoid using them until inspection. Authorized dealers will contact customers for the same or owners can contact the representatives on their own.

Second recall for Urban Cruiser Hyryder

This is also the second time the Hyryder has faced a recall in two months as around 1000 units of the SUV had to be recalled for a possible defect in the front seat belt shoulder height adjuster assembly.

Maruti Suzuki has also issued a recall for the Grand Vitara and Baleno, the siblings of the Urban Cruiser Hyryder and the Glanza for the same airbag assembly controller issue.
