Maruti: Child parts for steering assembly to cut repair costs

The steering column assembly in question is used in the S-Cross, Vitara Brezza, Baleno, Baleno RS, Swift and Dzire.

The engineers at Maruti Suzuki have redesigned the steering column assembly of some of its cars and introduced child parts that should help reduce replacement costs.

The redesigned steering column assembly now comprises the shaft assembly, which includes the steering column upper with MCU, shaft hub assembly consisting of the steering column upper without MCU and the steering column lower.

According to Maruti Suzuki, earlier, the complete assembly had to be replaced due to the non-availability of child parts for the steering column assembly. With the new child parts, it will be possible to replace specific components.

The steering column assembly in question is used in the S-Cross, Vitara Brezza, Baleno, Baleno RS, Swift and Dzire.
