Honda Cars India has said it will would carry out the inspection of Proportioning Valve of 15,623 units of non-ABS variants of Brio and 15,603 units of non-ABS variants of petrol Amaze manufactured from 28 February 2013 to 16 January 2014.
There is possibility that in some of these cars there is mis-assembly of Proportioning Valve, the company said in a press release. However, it said no complaint related to this part has been reported. HCIL will voluntarily replace the valve after inspection, if required.
The inspection and replacement will be done free of charge at dealerships and the owners will be contacted individually in a phased manner, the company said.
The Proportioning Valve is the part of Brake system which adjusts brake distribution pressure to the wheels. It is not part part of the braking system for ABS variants and therefore the ABS variants of Brio & Petrol Amaze and all variants of diesel Amaze do not require any inspection.
