Beijing : Volkswagen China will recall 49,480 vehicles due to brake design defects starting February 6, China's quality watchdog said on Sunday.
The recall involves imported Beetles produced between July 1, 2012 and August 6, 2015 and imported Golf Variants produced between July 1, 2012 and July 6, 2013, Xinhua news agency cited a statement from China's General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine as saying.
