Ford Motor's India unit on Monday said it has voluntarily recalled some Ford Figo and Ford Classic cars to look into potential problems with their rear twist beam and the power steering hose.

The company, however, did not disclose the number of vehicles affected by the move.

A potential crack in the rear twist beam in Figo and Classic cars manufactured between January 2008 and December 2010 could lead to the car being inoperable if initial noise symptoms are ignored, Ford said in a statement.

Another issue with the cars' power steering hoses could lead to a potential oil leak, and "in extreme cases," fire, Ford said.

It added that no injuries related to these issues have been reported yet.
