Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd is recalling 2,300 units of different variants of its sports utility vehicles (SUVs) Mahindra Scorpio and Mahindra XUV500, and its multi-purpose vehicle, Mahindra Xylo, to fix a potentially faulty vacuum pump issue in engines manufactured in May this year.

Mahindra & Mahindra issued a statement explaining that the preventive inspection and replacement of the vacuum pump, if needed, would be done free of cost. The statement further explained that the customers will be individually contacted by the company.

“The inspection is limited to approximately 2,300 vehicles of Scorpio (Vlx/Sle/Lx), XUV500 W4/w6/W8 and Xylo H9/H8/H4 variants,” the company said in the statement.

Earlier in July this year, Mahindra & Mahindra had recalled around 23,000 units of select variants of its SUV, Mahindra Scorpio, to rectify faulty pressure regulating valves.

Ever since auto industry body Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM) started voluntary vehicle recall for safety related issues in India in July 2012, over seven lakh vehicles have been recalled by various manufacturers.
