Shanghai GM to recall Chevrolet Captiva off-road vehicles due to faulty steering systems

10:41, March 13, 2010

Shanghai GM would recall the Chevrolet Captiva 2006, 2007 and 2008 off-road vehicles due to ineffective steering systems in the Chinese mainland starting on Friday, the country's top quality watchdog said.

The vehicles were produced by GM Daewoo, a unit of U.S. carmaker General Motors based in the Republic of Korea (ROK), and were imported by the China-based Shanghai GM, said a statement posted on the official website of the regulator, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (AQSIQ).

The watchdog also warned Chinese car owners to stop driving the vehicles as ineffective steering systems could lead to accidents.
