Reason for the recall
Within the scope of this recall, the actual and measured values of temperature/voltage may be deviated due to poor welding quality at the pins of the internal contact system of the power battery in some vehicles. When the deviation value exceeds the set safety value, the vehicle will start the battery system fail-safe mode, the fault code or alarm prompt information will appear, and cut off the power battery output, causing the power interruption during the vehicle's driving, and there is a safety hazard.
Recall measures
BMW Brilliance will replace the power battery module with welding defects free of charge for vehicles covered by the recall to eliminate safety hazards.

Due to the reasons of the instrument combination software, the vehicles within the scope of this recall may cause the vehicle to fail to display the mileage value normally after driving 21473 kilometers (or 13342 miles), which does not meet the requirements of the relevant national mandatory standards. Missing odometer readings can cause the user of the vehicle to miss or delay important vehicle maintenance, and if there is a potential failure of the vehicle part due to lack of maintenance, it may cause an accident without prior warning, and there is a safety hazard.
Chrysler (China) will upgrade the instrumentation software for vehicles with a mileage of less than 21,473 kilometers within the scope of the recall free of charge, and replace the instrument combination for vehicles that no longer display the mileage value to eliminate safety hazards.

Vehicles within the scope of this recall use the in-car double pull unlock method to open the hood, but lack the "hood is not closed" prompt function. If the hood is not fully locked after opening, the driver may be difficult to recognize the state in the car, and in extreme cases, the hood of the vehicle is at risk of being lifted, affecting the driver's line of sight, increasing the risk of collision of the vehicle, and there is a safety hazard.
Changan Ford Automobile will install the "hood is not closed" prompt function for vehicles within the scope of the recall free of charge to eliminate safety hazards.
Recently, Mercedes-Benz (China) filed a recall plan with the State Administration for Market Regulation. Effective April 29, 2022, the recall of a total of 177 imported AMG GT vehicles with a production date from July 17, 2015 to March 15, 2017 will be recalled.
The carbon fiber drive shafts of some vehicles covered by this recall may have residues from the production process attached to their bonded surfaces to the flange, causing their adhesion to the flange to be affected. The connection between the carbon fiber drive shaft and the flange may separate during vehicle operation, causing damage to the gearbox. In extreme cases, there may be power interruption during the driving process of the vehicle, which increases the risk of collision of the vehicle and has a safety hazard.
Mercedes-Benz (China) will inspect the carbon fiber drive shafts for vehicles within the scope of the recall, and if it is a part number in the affected area, it will be replaced free of charge to eliminate safety hazards.
