Toyota India recalls 8,700 units of Corolla Altis and Camry

Following global recalls that involved as much as 8 million vehicles, Toyota Kirloskar Motor Pvt. Ltd, the Indian subsidiary of one of the world’s leading carmakers, has announced that it will recall about 8,700 units of the Corolla Altis and the Camry over defective power window switches.    

The carmaker will begin the recall from next month and will inspect and replace the faulty power window master switches for free. According to Toyota, the affected vehicles include 2008 year model Corolla Altis built between July 30 and December 31 and the previous-gen Camry manufactured between September 1, 2006 and July 31, 2008. 

The owners of the vehicles under the recall will be notified through phone call or by letter from Toyota itself. The company has made it clear that the particular recall is only a precautionary measure, voluntarily carried out and there is no reason to panic.
