WARNING ***ALL RIGHT HAND DRIVE SUZUKI CELERIOS RECALLED - DO NOT DRIVE***

IF YOU HAVE TAKEN ELIVERY OF ONE OF THESE CARS THEN PLEASE DO NOT DRIVE IT, AND CALL YOUR LOCAL SUZUKI DEALER WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT, THIS RECALL MUST NOT BE IGNORED BY ANYONE

Following a condition experienced when carrying out an emergency braking test by a journalist from Autocar magazine on the 30^th January, Suzuki carried out an immediate investigation into the cause of this condition. 

As a direct result of this investigation and with immediate effect, Suzuki is recalling its UK Celerio models that went on official sale to the public on February 1^st. This safety recall relates to retraction of the brake pedal and affects Right Hand Drive vehicles for UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand.  

It does not affect left hand drive vehicles or other right hand drive markets.

Suzuki is directly contacting its customers via its dealer network and will be providing a loan vehicle to them until full safety checks have been completed. As UK sales of the Celerio model have now been temporarily suspended, this of course applies to press vehicles.

The condition was experienced during an emergency brake test from very high speed and was conducted several times on a private road test facility. This test forms a part of the full test procedure carried out by What Car? and Autocar magazines. The Celerio model has been on sale in India and Thailand since 2014.
