392 Cars Recalled Over Fire Risk Engine Fault

A significant car recall is underway in the UK affecting 392 vehicles due to a dangerous engine fault that could potentially spark a fire, The Sun reports.

The recall involves what's described as a dangerous engine defect, though the specific nature of the fault and which car manufacturers or models are affected remains unclear from the initial reporting.

Car owners are being urged to check whether their vehicle is among those affected by the recall. Vehicle recalls are typically issued when manufacturers or regulators identify safety defects that could pose risks to drivers, passengers, or other road users.

Under UK consumer protection laws, manufacturers are required to notify affected customers directly when recalls are issued, and repairs are generally carried out free of charge to resolve identified safety issues.
