HC Deb 14 February 1973 vol 850 c340W
55. Mr. Hugh Jenkins

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he is satisfied with the motor industry's method of recalling faulty cars: and what figures he has of the number of owners of cars with mechanical difficulties known to the manufacturers who have failed to respond to recall.

Mr. Peyton

Manufacturers take all reasonable steps to recall vehicles when a design fault develops. The response varies, but I understand that it is often disappointing.
