JOHANNESBURG - Over 20,600 Chery and Omoda vehicles are being recalled across the country over potential safety defects.
The National Consumer Commission says the recall affects the Chery Tiggo 4, Omoda C5 and Cherry Tiggo 8 Pro Max 2.0 vehicles.
The defects could pose serious safety risks.
The Tiggo 4 sold between October 2023 and March 2024 and Omoda C5 models sold between February 2023 and July 2026 may have faulty welding on the rear axle.
This could cause the axle to dislodge and the rear suspension to collapse.
