Renault Korea Motors and two other carmakers will recall more than 104,000 vehicles due to faulty components, the government said Thursday.

The three companies, including Kia Corp. and domestic electric van manufacturer Jeis Mobility, are voluntarily recalling a total of 104,120 units of three different models, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport said in a statement.

The problems that prompted the recall include a faulty component in the anti-lock braking system module in over 83,000 units of Renault's SM3 model and poor fueling valves in over 18,900 units of Kia's Carens compact car, according to the ministry. (Yonhap)
