The professional name of the frame number is the car VIN code, that is, the vehicle identification code, which is simply understood as "car ID card". It is a set of words assigned to each car by the car manufacturer in order to identify it. If there is a problem with the frame number of a car, then the car cannot be listed and cannot be on the road. Recently, a Ms. Chen in Shandong Province reported to the media that she spent millions of yuan on a second-hand luxury car and turned out to be a "toy car". How could she drive home but not on the road?

According to the "help Girl" report, Ms. Chen from Shandong bought a 2020 Toyota Elfa at the Zhongnan Automobile Market in Changsha, Hunan Province on May 20 this year. Although she bought a used car, the price of the car was not cheap. The car cost a total of 1.23 million yuan. However, when driving back to Shandong after picking up the car, it was rejected by the DMV. The return business certificate issued by the local DMV shows that the reason for the withdrawal is that the frame number has polishing marks, cannot confirm the uniqueness of the vehicle, and is suspected of change, so the relevant business will not be handled.

Can't you get a car that you spent millions of dollars on? This means that the car can only be used for viewing, which makes Ms. Chen very angry. Then Ms. Chen specially found a third party to do the relevant identification, and the final results of the appraisal report showed that the vehicle identification number had the phenomenon of repainting and polishing, starting from the last nine digits, and then it was different. That is to say, the vehicle identification number of this car is suspected of being changed. Ms. Chen said that the merchant sold her a car with a frame number that had been altered, which caused her to spend money on the car and could not use it, so the merchant was maliciously defrauding her.

After that, Ms. Chen came to the famous car shop in Changsha. Manager Wang, the person in charge of the second-hand car in Changsha, said: the tenth digit of imported cars from left to right cannot be "0". The appraisal report says that we changed "0" to "K", but the customs declaration is also "K", and the frame number of the first license plate is "K", which also shows that the car company has not changed the frame number from beginning to end. Manager Wang disagreed with the appraisal report provided by Ms. Chen because the vehicle identification number had not been changed.

In addition, Manager Wang pointed out: the report provided by Ms. Chen is unilateral and unprofessional, and it cannot be filed in Shandong. Reports made in Henan can be listed in other places, including Chengdu, Chongqing and the whole of Hunan Province. Only Linyi in Shandong can not be listed, so he does not know why, but Ms. Chen bought a car from Changsha in Hunan Province, went to Linyi in Shandong Province to list, and found a company in Henan to identify it. This kind of behavior is suspicious in itself.

Manager Wang also said that before the car could not be left behind, she agreed to give Ms. Chen a refund of 1.23 million and reimburse the relevant expenses, but Ms. Chen did not agree, but instead put forward a request for a refund of one to three. Due to unsuccessful negotiations between the two sides, Ms. Chen finally sued the merchant to the court.

Manager Wang said that the current lawsuit has been going on for six months and is in the stage of litigation, and the 5 million yuan in the account of the car company has been frozen all the time. If the car is really illegal or fraudulent, it will respect the judgment of the law and go to court to let the law decide. Ms. Chen, who is also waiting for the court's decision, said she would defend her rights to the end for fraud by merchants.

However, after this matter sparked a heated discussion on the Internet, most netizens said that the business was justified and supported the business.

According to a video posted by Mango City on a platform, Ms. Chen hopes to negotiate a return of the car and reimburse the expenses incurred during the period of safeguarding her rights, such as legal fees, accommodation fees and towing fees.

However, Manager Wang did not agree with the initial return plan, because his legal fees also cost 90 thousand yuan in six months of litigation, and his assets of 5 million yuan were frozen by the court, and the loss of interest on 90,000 yuan alone was very large. therefore, he no longer agreed to the return plan nor carried out further negotiations, and said: it is currently in the stage of litigation, and the court will decide soon, and now everything is decided by the court, "how can the court judge me to pay for it?" I'll pay for it.
