It is decided to recall a total of 226372 Zhonghua V5, Zhonghua H530, Junjie FSV and Junjie FRV cars produced during the period from June 21, 2010 to January 31, 2014.

Because the hub bolts of the BMW vehicle may not be correctly tightened to the standard torque due to assembly errors, it will cause abnormal noise and vibration of the chassis while the vehicle is driving; if the hub bolts fall off completely, the wheels may break away from the vehicle, resulting in the vehicle out of control and safety risks.

Mercedes-Benz due to supplier manufacturing reasons, the front drive shaft universal joint cross shaft hardness is insufficient and the surface is not smooth, which may lead to abnormal wear of cross shaft and bearing in the process of use. As the gap between the cross shaft and the bearing becomes larger and the vehicle continues to drive for a long distance, the flange of the universal joint of the front drive shaft may eventually break, resulting in the loss of driving power of the vehicle and safety risks. A total of 75415 imported and domestic GLK-class and S-class four-wheel drive vehicles will be recalled from April 30, 2020.

Mercedes-Benz (China) Automobile sales Co., Ltd., Beijing Mercedes-Benz Automobile Co., Ltd. And Fujian Mercedes-Benz Automobile Co., Ltd., due to the driver's seat and / or passenger seat front airbags of the vehicle are equipped with an ammonium nitrate gas generator without desiccant produced by Takata.

Among them, it can be seen that the main reasons are the negligence of material factors and process assembly. If the material factor can be attributed to the problems of the supplier, the quality check should be made from the source. However, for example, the reasons for assembly errors in BMW and incorrect settings of Audi's diagnostic software can be avoided, and Mercedes-Benz has recalled many times because of process assembly. for example, on July 15, Mercedes-Benz recalled 4699 S-class and CLS-class models due to errors in the software of the transmission control unit and the assembly process of steering bellows.

When it comes to car-building technology, many people will think of Germany, which has always been based on high quality, which is respected by the Chinese people, but it is precisely because of this that the quality of German technology seems to be much lower than it used to be under the stimulation of capital.

In addition, under the spell of Takata airbags, a number of car companies have recalled, and this time Mercedes-Benz recalled nearly 200000 vehicles due to the influence of Takata airbags. Not only that, according to foreign media reports, Toyota is recalling nearly 191000 vehicles in North America and Japan to replace faulty Takata airbags.

Although many netizens said that the recall of car companies is an act of "conscience", it has to be said that recalls caused by errors and negligence in craftsmanship should not occur. For car companies, only by controlling each quality barrier well, is a trustworthy car company.
