BMW Korea, Hyundai Motor Co. and two other carmakers will voluntarily recall more than 172,000 vehicles due to faulty components, the transport ministry said Thursday. The four companies, also including Kia Corp. and KGM Commercial, will recall 172,976 units of 103 different models, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport said in a statement. The problems that prompted the recall include an error with the airbag module inflator of some BMW 320d units and a wiring error of the second-row seats of over 43,000 units of Hyundai Motor's Santa Fe SUV. Also, over 15,000 units of Kia's Soul model are subject to a recall due to a potential fire risk associated with the vehicles' hydraulic electronic control unit. KGM Commercial will recall 52 units of its Smart 110E electric bus models due to a defect in the steering system. Source : Yonhap News Agency
