China Economic Network on January 29 (reporter Guo Yue) a few days ago, the State Administration for Market Supervision and Administration issued 5 recall announcements, involving Wuling, Audi, Toyota, Chery, Mercedes-Benz 5 brands of a total of 1534910 cars will be recalled. Among them, the recall of Wuling, Audi, Toyota and Chery brands exceeded 100,000 vehicles. In terms of independent brands, Wuling and Chery recalled a total of 756,410 vehicles; In terms of joint ventures, Audi, Toyota and Mercedes-Benz recalled 778,500 vehicles, and the scale of recall was "not divided".
Specifically, SAIC-GM-Wuling announced that from March 10, 2022, it will recall as many as 609779 Wuling Hongguang S3 and new Wuling Hongguang S cars, accounting for 39.73% of the total recall on that day. The reason for the recall is that the manual transmission parts of the vehicle are manufactured oversized, resulting in insufficient gear retention, which may cause occasional disequision in 6 gears under specific working conditions, resulting in temporary power transmission interruptions in the vehicle, and there may be safety hazards in extreme cases.
Audi will recall 453791 domestic Audi Q5L and 368 imported Audi SQ5s from February 28, 2022, totaling 454159, accounting for 29.59%. The reason for the recall is that the vehicle is located in a lower position under the rear seats because the gateway control module is located, and if a large amount of liquid accidentally spills on the rear seat, it may enter the gateway control module, resulting in a short circuit inside the gateway control module, which further causes various internal errors. Gateway control module has a safety design, if an untrusted signal is detected, the engine, gearbox, steering system, etc. will enter the protection mode, at this time the transmission clutch will be disconnected, resulting in power interruption in the vehicle, increasing the possibility of accidents, there are safety hazards.
Next, Toyota decided to recall a total of 323915 Corolla and Ralink vehicles from March 25, 2022, accounting for 21.10%. The reason for the recall is that the vehicle has a deviation in the size of the Stage 1 coil bracket inside some ignition coils due to manufacturing problems in the engine ignition coil, and the Class 1 coil may come into contact with the center core, and the insulation between the copper wire and the center iron core in the coil is reduced. In extreme cases, the operation of the engine may cause a short circuit in the 1-stage coil and the central iron core, so that the fuse is fused, cutting off the power supply of the spark plug, causing the vehicle to stop during driving, increasing the risk of accidents in the vehicle, and there is a safety hazard.
Chery announced that it will recall a total of 146631 vehicles from now on, accounting for 9.55%. Among them, 121881 Arizo 5 (Arrizo 5/EX/GX) recalled due to the vehicle due to the transmission cooling tubing assembly process may have insufficient clamp clamping force or incorrect position, in the long-term use of the vehicle may cause the transmission cooling tubing to fall off, the transmission oil leakage, fault light on the phenomenon, extreme situations may cause transmission interruption of the transmission power transmission, there is a safety hazard.
Another 24,750 Tiggo 7 recalls are due to the lack of strength of the vehicle's transmission cooling tubing due to structural design, the risk of cracking and oil leakage, the phenomenon of transmission oil leakage and fault lights, and the interruption of transmission power transmission in extreme cases, which may cause transmission interruptions and safety hazards.
In addition, Mercedes-Benz announced a recall of a total of 426 domestic and imported vehicles from today. Among them, the reason for the recall of 385 imported and domestic C-class and E-class vehicles is that the pressure relief valve of the vehicle air suspension compressor may be stuck due to corrosion, resulting in the inability to adjust the vehicle level height as expected, and the body may be stuck in a certain height of the suspension cannot be reduced, which does not meet the relevant requirements of the relevant national mandatory standards on the vehicle air suspension, and there are safety hazards.
Another 41 imported CLA recalls are due to production deviations in vehicles, and the power line joints of the electric steering power system may be contaminated with hot melt adhesive. The aging effect of hot melt adhesive will lead to a reduction in the fixing force of the power supply line connector of the electric steering power system, resulting in loose joint connections, and in extreme cases, it may lead to the interruption of the power supply of the electric power steering power system, affect the function of the power steering assistance system, increase the risk of accidents, and have safety hazards.
