Shanghai (ZXZC)- Zhejiang Haoqing Automobile Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and Zhejiang Geely Automobile Company Limited, two subsidiaries of Zhejiang Geely Holding Group, have registered vehicle recall plans to China's State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR), involving 89,657 vehicles in total, according to the announcement released by the SAMR.

The announcement shows that from now on, Zhejiang Haoqing Automobile Manufacturing Co., Ltd. will recall 42,216 units of the Geely Vision and GC7 produced between October 7, 2010 and July 7, 2012. Zhejiang Geely Automobile Company will recall a total of 47,441 EC7s manufactured from July 5, 2011 to May 31, 2012.

The vehicles to be recalled are facing potential quality issue of auto parts for fuel pump. There may be abnormal abrasion between the carbon brush and the commutator, two components installed in the motor of fuel pump, which is likely to interrupt oil pumping when the abrasion grows to a certain level, resulting in flameout with potential safety hazards.

After recalling the vehicles, both companies will replace the old parts with improved fuel pumps free of charge to eliminate the safety risk. Consumers can call Geely's official customers service hotline and offer the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) to confirm whether their vehicles are involved in this recall.
