AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)06/02 Report--

A few days ago, a netizen posted "is it a common problem that the E-class flat tire of Mercedes-Benz is a common problem?" The netizen said that on the evening of June 1, when the speed was about 70km/h per hour on the expressway, there was a big hole in the middle of the road and there was no time to escape, so the whole car shook as if it had been hard hit, and the dashboard immediately showed that the tire pressure was insufficient. Parking looks like this.

It can be seen that the rubber body in the toe area of the Mercedes-Benz E-class tire was cut and ruptured by the vertical edge of the hub notch, and this problem has been frequently complained by users earlier. The above netizens also asked, "is it the tire design of the original factory, the suspension shock absorber, or the driving problem?" "

Searching for relevant cases on the Internet, it is found that many car owners have exposed the problem that Mercedes-Benz tires are easy to burst under impact, and the fracture position is basically the same.

Another owner revealed that the two tires on the right side of the new Mercedes-Benz E-Class car, which traveled only more than 2000 kilometers, "suddenly" burst.

In fact, Mercedes-Benz officials have given a clear statement!

On May 27th, Mercedes-Benz (China) Automobile sales Co., Ltd. and Beijing Mercedes-Benz Automobile Co., Ltd. announced the recall of some imported and domestic Mercedes-Benz E-Class cars with 19-inch tires, starting from October 25, 2019, a total of 44900 vehicles.

The reason for the recall is that when the tire of the vehicle is impacted by a large external force in the course of driving, it will produce bulging or tire pressure loss due to damage, considering that the vehicle is equipped with low-pressure continuous running tires, the above situation has safety risks under some extreme conditions.

Solution: Mercedes-Benz (China) Automobile sales Co., Ltd., Beijing Mercedes-Benz Automobile Co., Ltd. will replace the improved front and rear tires for vehicles within the recall range free of charge to eliminate safety risks.

The recall was carried out under the circumstances that the State Administration of Market Supervision and Administration launched a defect investigation. For some time, the defective Product Management Center of the State Administration of Market Supervision and Administration has received defective clues from consumers to reflect the problem. Upon receipt of the defect clues, the State Administration of Market Supervision and Administration shall immediately organize and carry out defect investigation and assessment. After investigation, the State Administration of Market Supervision and Administration informed the producers to carry out the recall. Mercedes-Benz (China) Automobile sales Co., Ltd. and Beijing Mercedes-Benz Automobile Co., Ltd. decided to take recall measures to eliminate safety risks.

After the complaints and feedback from the majority of car owners, Mercedes-Benz finally admitted the quality problem of tire defects. Not long ago, Mercedes-Benz recalled 570000 C-Class and E-Class cars because of the problem of broken shock absorbers. It was only after complaints from a large number of car owners and a defect investigation initiated by the State Administration of Market Supervision and Administration that Mercedes-Benz finally admitted the hidden defects.
