AvtoVAZ Restarts Sales of Limited Lada Largus Batch After Checks

The step follows a regulator review into potential steering issues that has kept wider sales constrained since October 21.

Overview

  • AvtoVAZ says it has unblocked dealer sales of a limited Lada Largus batch that required additional inspection of one valve.
  • Rosstandart earlier requested information from AvtoVAZ after the National Automobile Union flagged possible non‑compliance with the Customs Union vehicle‑safety regulation.
  • Dealer sales restrictions introduced on October 21 were tied to a full analysis, component testing, and material studies initiated by the regulator.
  • AvtoVAZ and the power‑steering supplier continue technical analysis into reports of steering‑wheel rotation difficulty to determine any root causes.
  • Warranty repairs are being performed when customers report issues, and officials report completed repairs have been effective with no repeat complaints recorded.
