· 3.15 nights, eight car brands raided 770,000 vehicles

3.15, Absolute Chinese characteristics, especially for the automotive industry, which has an annual production and sales of more than 24 million vehicles (passenger cars). This is not the case. Many executives of multinational car companies responsible for government and media relations have missed the Geneva Motor Show before 3.15. Everyone understands.

I don't know if it is a coincidence. Eight brands from 12 manufacturers have released 15 batches of recall notices before the arrival of 3.15, involving more than 770,000 defective products. Among them, Audi recalled the largest batch, up to nearly 700,000.

Takata

In the recall of 15 batches in March as of March 13, airbag (curtain) defects were still the biggest factor, involving more than 7 models of 6 brands. Although only Changhe Suzuki specified the airbag supplier as Takada in the recall announcement, according to the description of the defective products by other brands, it is basically judged that these brands use the products of the same supplier, namely Takada.

At the same time that the above-mentioned brands were recalled due to airbag defects in the country, Nissan, BMW North America and Ford also filed legal proceedings against Takada. The three companies alleged that Takada had concealed cheating on airbag products and hoped that the manufacturer would use the lawsuit to force the manufacturer to bear the losses caused by its airbag defect. According to statistics, at least 17 deaths worldwide may be related to the defect of airbag inflator produced by Takada.

The Takada airbag explosion can be traced back to 2008. In the following days, car brands continued to recall due to the use of Takada airbags. In 2015 alone, the United States recalled about 40 million vehicles in Takata's defective airbags. This number is one of every seven cars on the US road that needs to be recalled. In the same year in China, the figure was 1.33 million.

It is worth noting that, taking the 2014 data as an example, the number of defective vehicles recalled by Takada in the Chinese market is less than 10% of that in the United States. However, with the increasing attention of Takada airbags, there are more and more recalls of Takada in the Chinese market. In 2016, among the 11.325 million defective vehicles recalled in the Chinese market, the number of vehicles involved in airbags and seat belts exceeded 6.4 million, accounting for 57%.

Normal recall

On January 1, 2016, the “Implementation Measures for the Management of Defective Automobile Product Recalls” was officially implemented. In the same year, the number of domestic defective car recalls exceeded 10 million for the first time, reaching 11.325 million, an increase of 103% year-on-year.

Historical data show that the first 10 million defective cars were recalled in the Chinese market for 9 years (2004-2013), the second 10 million vehicles were recalled for 2 years (2014 to 2015), and the third 10 million It took only one year (2016).

In the field of passenger vehicles (including some commercial vehicles), according to incomplete statistics, as of February this year, a total of 406 defective vehicles were recalled (in 2014 data is incomplete), and it shows a trend of increasing year by year. Among them, 152 in 2015 and 163 in 2016. In the first two months of this year, the number of recall notices issued by enterprises has reached 49, both higher than the historical level. It is foreseeable that with the increase in sales volume and the deepening of the Takata airbag incident, the number and batch of China's auto recalls will reach a new high this year.

However, although the recall in the Chinese market has become a normal state, some brands still have a chance to be unwilling and afraid to face it. Among them, Dongfeng Citroen is an example. According to the statistics of the car network, since the listing of the Citroen C4L, it has received a total of 1381 complaints, an absolute number. According to the car network "2016 domestic passenger car complaints sales ratio ranking" data, in the 249 models that have been listed for more than 3 months and the annual sales volume is not less than 15,000, Citroen C4L ranks second to last; In 2016, the 2016 joint venture brand car complaints sales ratio is ranked first in the rankings, and the complaint sales volume is as high as 130.5%, which is 8.2 times the domestic passenger car complaint sales volume in 2016 compared with the market average of 15.9. Behind large-scale customer complaints, complaints of up to two digits of suspected product design flaws are of particular concern. In 2015, Dongfeng Citroen once recalled the C4L 1.6T model, but the problem of the 1.8L model reflected by the car network has delayed the action of Citroen.
