Rosstandart banned the sale and circulation in Russia of specific Dongfeng and Zoomlion truck models.
The ban was due to violations of mandatory safety requirements for wheeled vehicles.
The affected models include Dongfeng DFV4198 and DFV KC, and Zoomlion ZTC-4, ZTC-4, TMCP3, and TMCP4.
Safety issues included ineffective braking systems, improper seat belt fastening, defective steering, missing or non-compliant protective devices, and malfunctioning emergency call systems.
Rosstandart ordered official representatives of the manufacturers to develop recall programs to fix defects in both already sold and unsold vehicles.
Sales of the affected vehicles have been suspended by the manufacturers.
Manufacturers are required to contact owners of affected vehicles to arrange free repairs.
Documentary violations were also identified during inspections.
