Maruti Suzuki India Limited (MSIL) has recalled 63,493 units of the above-mentioned cars’ SHVS avatars. Apparently, there is a safety risk revolving around the SHVS (Smart Hybrid Vehicle by Suzuki) models’ ISG system. These vehicles are manufactured between 1st January 2019 to 21st November 2019.The ISG or Integrated Starter Generator unit is an integral part of modern automobiles and replaces a conventional starter and alternator (generates energy from the engine to keep the battery and electrical equipment running). To some extent, it helps in improving a vehicle’s fuel-efficiency during cranking (starting) and idling, since it reduces the load on the engine considerably. This is the reason why many manufacturers employ it in their products under the moniker, ‘mild-hybrid’.
If you own one of the cars applicable for the recall, you will be contacted by your dealership soon. Owners can check online, if their car is affected by the said recall, by visiting
