AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)12/01 Report--

Automobile recall is a mechanism to effectively protect the rights and interests of car owners. after decades of development, automobile product recall has become a mature mechanism to solve the defects of automobile products. However, with the development of domestic car companies, the recall has also increased significantly in recent years. Cui Dongshu, secretary general of the National passenger car Federation, recently announced the recall status of the national automobile market in November, and found that the recall of independent brands is increasing year by year. Gradually approaching the number of joint venture brands.

Data show that a total of 5.96 million vehicles were recalled in China in the first 11 months of this year, with a total of 5.96 million vehicles recalled. Due to the impact of the Takata airbag incident, the number of recalled models decreased by 51% compared with last year's 12.09 million, and the overall performance was good.

Specifically, among the recalls in the first 11 months of this year, imported car companies totaled 103, joint venture car companies totaled 50, while independent car companies totaled 31, which was still the smallest. Among them, imported models have more recalls in Germany, Japan and Japan, while joint ventures have more recalls in Japan and Germany.

It is worth noting that from the recall situation over the years, the recall number of imported car companies and joint venture car enterprises shows a downward trend, while independent car enterprises show a growth trend, and this performance does not mean that the quality of their own brands is getting worse and worse. after all, with the development of the automobile industry in recent years, the product power of many independent brands has been greatly improved, which is obvious to all. Therefore, in Cui Dongshu's view, the gradual increase of independent recalls is also a good thing to standardize and improve, and the more recalls, the more credible it is.

For the car recall incident, the evaluation of the industry is also mixed, thinking that the recall of international brands is a good thing worthy of praise, knowing mistakes can be corrected, while the recall of domestic independent brands is poor, risky models, can not be bought. This is also the reason why independent brands have fewer recalls compared with international brand car companies.

In fact, the vehicle recall does not necessarily mean that there is a problem with the quality of the car, it may also be the recall of the car company taking the initiative to update new technology for the old car owners. The recall should be treated rationally, because the car is a complex system made up of tens of thousands of parts, although the vehicles handed over by car companies to car owners should not have any defects. However, there are also people in the industry who show that design and manufacturing are the main causes of defects, in which the number of recalls caused by design problems is small, but the number is huge. The recall does represent a problem with the quality of the car, but for some recalls, automakers are unable to test thousands of possibilities.

It is worth mentioning that as a century-old car company, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen and other multinational car companies are recalled because of negligence. It is obvious that the car-building technology of German cars is not as good as it used to be. Mercedes-Benz recalls frequently because of tires, broken axles and other problems. In fact, more attention should be paid to it. Do not be "capricious" just because it is a big brand and the recall will not affect its reputation. After all, safety is very important.

For the recall of independent brands, it can be said that no recall is not excellent, but the implementation of the recall can be more trusted.
