Almost 7,000 Honda Civics are being recalled in the UAE because of a fault in the water cooling system that can stop the car's engine.
The recall affects Civics sold between 2009 and 2010. Owners are being notified to bring their cars in for immediate servicing.
The problem centres on a small bolt in the water pulley system that can become loose, leading to engine failure.
"The UAE is our biggest market in the GCC for Civics, so this affects a very small proportion of these models, about 6,986 cars," said Arijit Basu, the general manger of Sales for Honda Middle East.
"We have notified Al Futtaim Motors and they have the database of customers who have the affected chassis number, and we will be contacting them to bring their cars in for checks."
The cars will have the bolt replaced and tested to ensure that there is no fault.
