Fault in the suspension system's ball joints.

SsangYong is expected to recall around 110,000 vehicles in South Korea due to defective suspension system parts, reports Electronic News. South Korea's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (MLIT) conducted an investigation that found a fault in the suspension system's ball joints. Following the investigation, MLIT plans to request that SsangYong issue an immediate recall of affected vehicles, which include the Rexton 2, Kyron, Actyon, and derivative models. However, the automaker has said there could be fewer recalled vehicles as it has already been inspecting and repairing the defective parts on several vehicles since April 2014.
