[THE INVESTOR] Renault Samsung Motors is recalling more than 94,000 units of its SM6 midsize sedan sold in South Korea for a range of issues, including loose plastic covers on pedals that could cause unsafe driving, the Transportation Ministry said on March 9.

According to the ministry, the plastic cover of the accelerator and brake pedals in certain SM6s can break away, possibly leading to an accident.

The recall affects 50,110 SM6 cars produced between Oct. 5, 2015, and Oct. 24, 2016, the ministry said in a press release.

The South Korean unit of French automaker Renault S.A. is also recalling an additional 43,959 units of the midsize sedan, produced between Nov. 26, 2015, and Nov. 11, 2016, for various problems that include defective brake lights.
