Skoda Fabia recalled

Skoda has recalled the two petrol variants of its popular hatchback - Fabia 1.2l and Fabia 1.4L to rectify a technical glitch. The problem in the two variants is affecting the fuel efficiency and performance of the car. Several customers had experienced problems with the car and some even complained that the brake pedal became hard, while driving at a high speed.
Skoda has confirmed that it had recalled the car, but blamed “inconsistent fuel quality” behind the step. Due to inconsistent fuel quality in India, Skoda India has done minor change in the software to attain better fuel economy and driving performance, the company said. Skoda officials said they would rectify the problem free of cost. “We are not charging anything for this and customers would just need to spend about 20-30 minutes at the dealerships,” a company spokesperson said. All manufacturers do constant upgradations of their products so that the customer always enjoys the best quality and service, the company further said
