The recall affects 1,236 cars manufactured by German carmaker Porsche between July 2013 and February 2016, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine said in a statement.

The snap spring of the brake pedals, of the affected vehicles, may loosen during driving, posing serious safety risks, state-run Xinhua news agency reported.

The Dalian-based car import and export company asked dealers to check all affected vehicles and replace the defective parts free of charge, the statement said.
