In a statement, Maruti Suzuki India has said that it will undertake a "service campaign" for its new Swift and Baleno models to inspect for a possible fault in the brake vacuum hose.
The campaign would cover 52,686 Swift and Baleno cars manufactured between Dec. 1, 2017, and March 16, 2018, according to the statement released on Tuesday.
Both Swift and Baleno are said to be the company's popular-selling models.

However, it's not only Maruti Suzuki that has recalled cars this year.
Auto companies in India have recalled 118,000 two-wheelers and cars this year, a figure which is higher than in the entire 2017, according to the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers.
