Record number of car recalls in China this year

China Daily  

Chongqing Changan Automobile announced that it will recall 30,886 of its Benni I and Benni Love models starting from Dec 26. Faulty Takata airbags are responsible for 3.5m returns A record number of vehicles have been recalled this year in China since the system was initiated in 2004, according to the country's top quality watchdog. A total of 76 automakers or dealers had announced 226 recalls by Dec 18, involving 5.54 million vehicles, a 17 percent rise from the same period last year, said Yan Fengmin, an official at the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, at a news conference on Dec 21. Statistics show that faulty Takata airbags were a major culprit this year, resulting in the recall of more than 3.5 million vehicles in China. John Zeng, managing director at consultancy LMC Automotive, said that in addition to official supervision, Chinese customers' growing awareness of quality is helping prompt carmakers and dealers to recall faulty cars.
