Maruti Suzuki India Ltd is calling back 39,506 Grand Vitara SUVs. They found a possible problem with the fuel level and the warning light. This is to make sure customers stay safe and the cars keep working well.The company said that the Grand Vitara cars made between December 9, 2024, and April 29, 2025, are the ones affected.
Why Is Maruti Suzuki Recalling Grand Vitara?
The recall began because there may be a problem with the fuel gauge and warning light in the speedometer area.
Maruti Suzuki says the fuel gauge might not always show the right amount of fuel. This could make drivers think they have more or less fuel than they actually do.
This issue affects some production batches only. But the company will recall all units that could be impacted. This step is to keep customer trust and safety high.
Which Grand Vitara Models Are Affected?
Maruti Suzuki has said that the cars being talked about are the ones made:
From: 9 December 2024
To: 29 April 2025
In total, 39,506 units fall under this recall.
What Will Maruti Suzuki Do for Owners?
Maruti Suzuki has said that owners do not need to pay anything for this. Here is what the company will do:
1. Owner Notification
Owners of the Grand Vitara cars that are affected will get messages right from Maruti Suzuki–authorised dealer workshops.
2. Free Inspection
Dealers will ask you to take your car to the workshop. There, they will check the speedometer assembly carefully.
3. Free Replacement
If the fuel gauge part does not work right, it will be changed at no cost.
4. Safety Assurance
Maruti Suzuki asks all customers who are affected to reply soon. This will help things go well and keep your vehicle safe and working right.
A Look Back at Previous Recalls
Earlier in 2024, Maruti Suzuki called back around 16,000 cars of the Wagon R and Baleno models. They found that there might be a problem with the fuel pump motor. This issue could make the engine stop running.
This shows the company takes care when thinking about customer safety. It also shows the company wants its products to work well and be safe for people to use.
Why This Recall Matters for Grand Vitara Owners
A faulty fuel indicator can cause:
Incorrect understanding of remaining fuel
Unexpected low fuel situations
Potential driving inconvenience
Maruti Suzuki started this recall to make sure drivers always get right fuel details when they are driving. The company wants people to have needed facts at the right time on the road.
Final Thoughts:
The recall of 39,506 Grand Vitara units shows that Maruti Suzuki wants to give people safe and good cars.
The problem is found only in some of the cars, but the company will check and change the parts at no cost. This helps people feel good about the company and trust their cars.
