SVR’s Take<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We’ve tracked recalls<\/a> since early 2015 and this is the first recall from Garia. This is not surprising since they are a lower volume manufacturer focusing on building higher quality vehicles. According to their website<\/a>, the fix is relatively simple so this shouldn’t be much of a problem for Garia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
