Nano is safe: Tata Motors

Nano is safe: Tata MotorsAfter the small wonder from Tata Motors, Tata Nano caught fire in three separate incidents, an internal probe, jointly done by an independent forensic expert from the UK and a technical investigative team recently declared the car to be a safe product for the Indian consumer.

The investigation, conducted by a 20-member Tata Motors' team, concluded that the Nano is safe and the recently-reported fire incidents were not related to any manufacturing defect.

Even before the cars caught fire, the company had taken note for few incidents where smoke was coming out of the circuit behind the steering column.

However, with the study done now, the company is confident that it will not prove as a setback for many consumers who were earlier afraid of buying the product.

The fact that a Nano caught just 45 minutes after it was taken out of the showroom by the owner made a lot of news pushing the company to clear the dew drops from the aquarium. The company has so far delivered more than
30,000 units of the Nano and will soon by starting mass production as the Sanand plant gets operational.
