Man Utd Co-Owner’s Firm Recalls SUVs Over Risk of Doors Flying Open
The recall affects Ineos’ Grenadier SUVs produced between 6 July 2023 and 19 April 2024.
Ineos Automotive, the vehicle maker owned by multi-billionaire businessman and Manchester United co-owner, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, has recalled more than 7,000 of its sport utility vehicles (SUVs) in the US.
The recall centres on latches that may not engage properly, which could lead to the doors on Grenadier SUVs opening while being driven “increasing the risk of injury to passengers inside the vehicle.”
To fix the problem, Ineos says it will replace all door button assemblies on the affected vehicles, free of charge.
The recall is the latest issue faced by the car company, which last year had to temporarily pause manufacturing after one of its parts suppliers became insolvent.
The recall affects Ineos’ Grenadier SUVs produced between 6 July 2023 and 19 April 2024.
The door button mechanism on affected vehicles may have been assembled without enough grease in them, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) filing.
