Suzuki Romania official explained that the owners of the 147 targeted cars will be sent registered letters, personalised, inviting them to bring their car to one of the Suzuki services for checks.

"The operation lasts only a few minutes and does not imply any cost on the owner's account. We hope to check the cars as quickly as possible, but the process might take a while, because some of the cars already have another owner", Radu said.

The targeted cars were produced from the fall of 2007 to the spring of 2008. So far, the possible incorrect positioning of the fuel supply lead has not caused any incident.

According to Radu, this operation will not affect the Japanese brand image locally because "it is not a recall for road security".
