German carmaker Volkswagen began to recall 5,906 vehicles in China over defective batteries, the nation's quality watchdog said Tuesday.
Starting from Tuesday, Volkswagen will recall 5,906 imported 2012-2014 Flying Spur models and Continental models, manufactured between Feb. 5, 2011 and May 15, 2014, according to the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (AQSIQ).
The battery nuts of those affected vehicles may become loose while driving and cause safety risks, said the AQSIQ.
The company will replace the faulty parts free of charge.
