AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)10/30 Report--

According to media reports, Daimler said on Tuesday that on some EQC vehicles, the bolts on the front axle differential may not meet industry standards for durability and do not rule out the possibility of bolt fracture, a defect that could disrupt the torque transmission of the front axle and cause the vehicle to stall. In addition, the broken bolt may also get stuck in the differential, affecting the ability to control the car and increasing the risk of collision. As a result, the company will recall some Mercedes-Benz EQCs, the exact number of which was not disclosed by Daimler, but according to German media reports, the recall affected 1700 EQC electric vehicles.

It is understood that as early as the 2016 auto show, Mercedes-Benz showed electric travel products and the new electric car brand EQ, while the EQC is the first pure electric vehicle of the EQ brand, and it is also the first pure electric SUV of Mercedes-Benz, which is equipped with front and rear motors, the maximum power is 300kW, and the peak torque is 765Nm. In addition, the new car is equipped with a 80kWh lithium battery pack, which has a mileage of more than 415km under NEDC conditions.

The car has been unveiled at this year's Shanghai auto show, and the domestic version of the EQC is produced by Beijing Mercedes-Benz and will officially go on sale on November 8. it is unclear whether it will have an impact on the launch time of the domestic version of EQC and other aspects.

Mercedes-Benz has always given people a sense of high-end atmosphere, but on the issue of broken axle has been recalled many times, and the number of recalls is also very large.

On May 25, Beijing Mercedes-Benz decided to recall some Mercedes-Benz E-Class models. The recall program will be implemented on October 25, 2019. The recall includes Mercedes-Benz E200, E200L, E300 and E300L models manufactured from February 2016 to March 2019, involving a total of 290468 vehicles. After December 20, there was a recall of 271700 domestic and imported C-Class cars, all of which were made in the past five years. The reason for the recall is that the front shock absorber, which has troubled many car owners, may be damaged and deformed when it is subjected to a strong impact, or even cause the fork head of the shock absorber to break.

It can also be seen from the automobile quality defect website that axle breakage occurs from time to time in the 2017 and 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class, mainly in 200L sports models and 300L luxury models.

The danger of axle breaking is great, which will not only lead to the deviation of the direction of the vehicle, but also the braking system can not reduce the speed rapidly. if the axle is broken at high speed, the consequence is unimaginable. Volkswagen Suiteng has also exposed broken axles many times before, but now it is not uncommon for Mercedes-Benz E-Class cars to break axles.

In addition, problems such as flat tire, abnormal noise of steering system and abnormal sound of braking system also emerge one after another, which are all major hidden dangers related to personal safety. In the face of such a major security risk, there are 4S stores push three obstacles and four do not bear responsibility, always perfunctory on the grounds of human causes.

In September, Mercedes-Benz sold 61664 vehicles in China, up 12.9 per cent from a year earlier. In the first nine months, Mercedes-Benz sold 525890 vehicles in China, up 5 per cent from a year earlier.

In the severe environment of the automobile market, the sales of Mercedes-Benz has little impact, which is enough to show consumers' recognition of the Mercedes-Benz brand, but in fact the quality runs counter to the sales volume.

Consumers buy Mercedes-Benz cars not only because the quality of luxury cars is more guaranteed than civilian cars, now not only Mercedes-Benz E-Class safety risks, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, GLC and other model complaints are also numerous, even the upcoming pure electric has not been officially listed in the domestic market when quality problems are exposed, how to make consumers believe?
