BYD issues a mass recall covering more than 32,000 vehicles across Australia due to a spare-wheel safety defect, according to reports.
PerthNow and The West Australian both say the recall relates to spare wheel safety, affecting a large number of vehicles nationwide. The outlets do not describe injuries or the total number of affected models in the provided excerpts, nor do they outline specific repair steps. However, both accounts indicate the issue is serious enough to prompt a formal recall process, implying that owners may need to have their vehicles inspected and/or repaired to address the defect.
Both sources frame the story as a broad, country-wide recall tied to spare-wheel safety. The coverage is otherwise aligned in scope and scale in the excerpts, with no clear differences in the stated reason for the recall.
