40+ car companies go bankrupt, what to do after sales?

Over the past decade, the price of the Mitsubishi Outlander has changed dramatically. Ten years ago, the price of this imported car was close to 300,000, but today, 21 Mitsubishi Outlanders can be driven away in just over 100,000. This drop in price is incredible. However, despite this price advantage, Mitsubishi Motors' sales in the Chinese market have been sluggish. In recent years, more and more niche car brands have disappeared in the Chinese market. According to statistics, in the past five years, more than 40 automobile brands have officially withdrawn from the Chinese market, gone bankrupt or stopped operating automobile business. This is a huge blow to consumers, as repairs cannot be carried out without accessories. Although according to mainland regulations, manufacturers still need to guarantee the supply of parts for ten years after the car is delisted, in reality, when the brand or dealer is in trouble, it is difficult to comply with such regulations. Even if the group takes over the after-sales problem after the brand is delisted, the probability of consumers experiencing the shortage of parts is significantly higher, especially for models with low ownership. Therefore, it will be difficult to repair cars will become the norm. Some Mitsubishi owners said on the complaint platform that they have encountered a shortage of spare parts. This situation prevents their problems from being resolved in a timely manner.

Based on the above situation, we can see that the collapse of automobile operators not only brings inconvenience to consumers, but also has a certain degree of impact on the entire automobile market. To avoid a similar situation, we need to strengthen the supervision of car operators and set stricter regulations and requirements to ensure that consumers' rights are not violated. In addition, automobile manufacturers should also strengthen cooperation with dealers, establish a more stable supply chain system, and ensure after-sales service for consumers. Finally, I would like to ask the readers, in your experience, have you encountered a difficult situation in car repair? How was it solved? There are many problems: auto parts are out of stock, car owners' dilemma is difficult to solve Jeep owners' complaints, let us see the problem of auto parts out of stock again, this is not an isolated case. After the bankruptcy of GAC FCA, Stellantis Group took over the import of Jeep and Maserati and other brands for domestic sales, but the shortage of individual parts is still difficult to avoid. Among the owners of domestic large commanders, the problem of shortage of exterior parts is particularly serious, and the owner needs to drive hundreds of kilometers to find change, which makes "difficult to repair" become "difficult to repair the car", and the dilemma of the owners is difficult to solve.

WM Motor is also facing the problem of shortage of parts, and auto parts factories can only buy dismantled parts to complete maintenance, which adds a lot of inconvenience to car owners. The consumer warning issued by the Qingpu District Consumer Protection Commission said that WM Motor was operating abnormally, reminding consumers to buy cautiously. Due to the reduction of the source of vehicle parts, manufacturers do not produce corresponding analogues, and the price of accessories for these "out-of-print cars" has also risen. For a series of problems caused by the bankruptcy and bankruptcy of automobile operators, He Xing believes that in addition to the difficulty of repairing cars, the renewal of smart cars and the rights and interests of three guarantees may also become a test. This problem is unavoidable and needs to be solved jointly by relevant departments and automobile manufacturers. At present, the problem of out-of-stock has put car owners in a difficult situation, and this problem cannot be solved overnight, and requires the joint efforts of all parties. In view of the problem of parts shortage of parts, we can consider increasing production, promoting industrial chain coordination, and improving the supply chain risk management capabilities of automobile manufacturers to solve it. Only in this way can the automotive industry develop in a more sustainable direction. So, what is your opinion on the problem of auto parts out of stock? Welcome to leave a message to share. Question: What is the impact of the collapse of car companies on automobile after-sales service?

The impact of the collapse of car companies on automobile after-sales service Recently, the Beijing Equity Exchange issued an announcement on the disposal of Borgward's bankruptcy liquidation property, which caused people to worry about automobile after-sales service. He Xing said that after the bankruptcy and bankruptcy of car companies, various after-sales service channels, including OTAs, will be terminated due to the lack of technical support from manufacturers, and some quality problems of vehicles will continue to exist, affecting consumers' normal use of vehicles. If a car company goes bankrupt, the technical services that require capital and personnel support will also be terminated. The after-sales problem of new energy vehicles will be more prominent, because it is difficult for consumers to find professional institutions to carry out daily maintenance, diagnosis and repair of the core components of the vehicle. In addition, the rights and interests of consumers cannot be effectively protected. The "lifetime warranty" promised by many car companies will also become a dead letter with the bankruptcy and collapse of car companies. According to a research report released by UBS China, tail automakers in the Chinese car market are gradually withdrawing from the market, leaving only the most suitable companies to survive. There are currently about 148 car brands in China, of which 114 are local brands and 34 are foreign brands. By 2030, China's electric vehicle manufacturers will shrink to a dozen or more.

This means that the automotive market will be more centralized in the future, the risk of bankruptcy and bankruptcy of car companies will also increase, and consumers need to be more vigilant. Suggestions and summary The bankruptcy of car companies is undoubtedly a big blow to consumers. Therefore, consumers should choose some well-known brands when buying cars and avoid choosing tail manufacturers. In addition, consumers should also pay attention to the daily maintenance and repair of vehicles to avoid timely and effective maintenance services after vehicle problems. Finally, the government should introduce some policy support and measures to strengthen the supervision of the automobile market and protect the legitimate rights and interests of consumers. What measures do you think the government should take to protect the legitimate rights and interests of consumers? The question is, are the small car brands on the market really worth buying for consumers? In this era of diversity and inclusion, should we avoid smaller brands and prefer mass models? Although the market should be diversified, for consumers, buying a car is not only to meet their own needs, but also to consider aspects such as after-sales service and maintenance. Therefore, it is wiser to choose a large car brand.

After all, when these so-called "small and beautiful" brands disappear, it will become more difficult to repair and maintain vehicles. However, this does not mean that we should exclude small car brands. Instead, we should welcome their emergence because they bring more competition and choice to the market. But for ordinary consumers, it is more reliable and secure to choose more popular brands or small brands that already have a certain market share. At the same time, it is also important to note that the automotive market is a highly competitive market, and the rise and fall of brands is unpredictable. A small brand may succeed in a short period of time, but at the same time it can disappear quickly. Therefore, as consumers, we need to look at the various car brands in the market more rationally and make the right choice. In short, the market should be diversified, but for ordinary consumers, priority should be given to those popular brands or small brands that already have a certain market share. This can better guarantee the after-sales service and maintenance after the purchase of the car. But at the same time, welcome and cheer for the emergence of those small car brands. Finally, we need to look at the various car brands in the market more rationally and make appropriate choices.

So, how would you choose a car?
