Renault Samsung has recalled around 400,000 vehicles in South Korea because of loose engine mounts.
According to the country’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, a bolt holding down the engine mount might become loose and cause the engine to shake and make too much of noise. If the bolt breaks, the engine may move out of its place.
