Toyota is known for its excellent quality, so it is called "Toyota that cannot be broken" by consumers. However, in the past two years, Toyota's complaints have increased day by day, whether it is the engine, body electrical or gearbox have been met with many complaints. Recently, The performance of Leiling has really made people a little upset, especially the problem of The sudden setback of the Leiling gearbox has once again become the "heart disease" of the owners of TheLeiling.
Complaint data from Automen.com shows that in March 2022, the Ralink complaint index was 147.45, which was still an upward trend from the previous month, and Ralink's complaint ranking in the compact model was still in the top three. The reason for the rise in the Leiling complaint index is the clichéd gearbox ups and downs, such problems basically appear in the 2019 model, 2021 model 185T CVT luxury version, of which a few are also reflected in the 2017 185TCVT elite version of the national V redesign.
According to the owner's feedback, when The Leiling is driving normally for 15/30 yards (km/h), the loose throttle suddenly breaks, and when the same 15/30 yards (km/h), tapping the throttle is also a sudden frustration, and both cases have a clicking sound. When a 15/30 yard (km/h) vehicle is taxiing, sometimes the vehicle suddenly accelerates and rushes forward, which is very unsafe. D Shift N was strongly dampened, accompanied by body vibrations. "The 4S store was also unable to detect the problem, only telling that the phenomenon was normal.
Another owner said that not long after the new car was bought, the vehicle will appear one by one when driving at a low speed, like a sudden sharp acceleration and then a sharp brake, and then the problem is getting more and more serious, even if it is not a low-speed driving state, the vehicle will still have the same situation, especially when changing gears, this situation is more and more obvious. The comfort of driving is greatly reduced in the long run. Later, I went to the 4S shop to deal with this problem, and the maintenance staff of the 4S shop said after inspection that the problem was a common disease of Leiling. If you want to solve it, you can only find the manufacturer, so you contacted the manufacturer but so far did not give a reasonable solution.
Retrieving Leiling on the Internet, the most common word on the Internet is "gearbox setback", combined with the owner's feedback, Leiling's gearbox setback problem does bother many car owners, from this point of view, the problem has indeed become the "heart disease" of Leiling car owners.
In fact, the problem of the sudden setback of the Ralink CVT gearbox can be said to be "a chronic disease that is difficult to eliminate". As early as 2015, Leiling was subjected to a large number of complaints from car owners because of the transmission problem. According to the owner of the car, the abnormal sound similar to metal friction emitted by the Ralink gearbox is caused by the lack of sealing of the oil circuit when the oil temperature is too high in one of the valve bodies of the solenoid valve. What is unacceptable is that the 2015-2021 models have this problem, and the manufacturer has not solved it after several years.
In the face of a large number of complaints from car owners, GAC Toyota not only failed to come up with a reasonable solution, but even did not publicly state the real reason for the setback of the vehicle's gearbox, which makes people have to guess how much Toyota attaches importance to this matter.
Although this problem has not caused direct damage to The sales of Leiling for the time being, as an evergreen tree under the sales of GAC, There are such serious quality problems in Leiling, which undoubtedly smashes the reputation of GAC Toyota's "reliable quality". In the long run, the brand influence of the company will be greatly reduced. Perhaps, GAC Toyota comes up with a reasonable explanation and compensation plan to regain the impression of "ace of the car company" in the minds of consumers.
