Hanoi (VNA) – Mitsubishi Vietnam will recall more than 2,500 Pajero carsimported into Vietnam from 2007 to 2016 nationwide starting from November 1.

Thecars will be recalled for checking and replacement of failed airbags. They willbe recalled until October 31, 2019, with repair time taking between 30 and 108minutes per vehicle.

Therecall is attributed to the possibility that catalyst inside the airbag’s fusecould degenerate due to temperature change after a long period of use, causingthe fuse’s cover to break when the airbag is activated.
