Recently, according to the recall announcement issued by the AQSIQ website, Gasgoo sorted out the domestic automobile recalls in March 2018. The results showed that in March of this year, there were 15 announcements concerning vehicle recalls involving 14 auto companies. The number of recalls totaled 360,774 vehicles. The number of recalls was 85.58% lower than the 2.5 million vehicles in February, similar to the 340,000 recalls in January. According to Gasgo Motors analysis, this is not unrelated to the “3·15 International Consumer Rights Dayâ€. Some car companies have chosen to initiate a recall before this node to reduce complaints in order to avoid being exposed. As a result, a large number of car companies recalled last month. .
In March, there were five recall incidents caused by Takada's airbags, which were directly caused by “damage of the gas generator casing and causing debris to fly outâ€, involving multiple models of brands such as BMW, BMW Brilliance, Beijing Benz, Ferrari, and Honda, and the number of recalls. It reached 48,760 vehicles, accounting for 13.52% of the total recalls.
In addition to airbags, there were three recalls due to engine problems, involving 285,285 vehicles for Changan, Volkswagen and Toyota. Among them, Changan CS75 due to the engine oil in the trace amount of liquid gasoline can not be evaporated in time to enter the cylinder and then burn, the oil in the oil plate increases the damage to the engine, the number of recalls reached 252,087 units, accounting for the total recall of 69.88%, became a single in March The most recalled brands.
In fact, Honda was also caught in the same throttle as Chang'an. However, compared with Changan, which officially filed a recall plan with AQSIQ on March 2 and implemented a recall action, Dongben announced on February 12th. After the "preparation" of the relevant product is recalled, there will be no more. In this regard, in early March, the AQSIQ Inspector General of the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine had interviewed Dongfeng Honda Automobile Co., Ltd. on the “motor oil increase problem†for models such as the Dongfeng Honda Siwei (CR-V) and demanded that it attach great importance to the issues reflected by consumers. Strictly follow the regulations to eliminate vehicle defects. The General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (AQSIQ) pointed out that the recall measures proposed by the production enterprises are still not perfect. The production companies should further improve the technical solutions, take effective measures as soon as possible to eliminate defects, and propose to take measures such as extending the warranty period. Consumer concerns. According to relevant media reports, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Dongfeng Group will also enter the Dongfeng Honda Engine Co., Ltd. to inspect the inspection work starting from April.

Recall reason:
The electronic engine control unit (ECU) software of some vehicles in the above-mentioned range lacks control over the adjustment of the engine fuel injection strategy under extreme conditions. When the vehicle is running in a low-temperature environment for a long time and at a short distance, the engine oil continues to be in a low temperature state. The trace amount of liquid gasoline remaining in the engine oil cannot be vaporized in time and enters the cylinder through the crankcase forced ventilation system and then burns. After a certain period of time, the oil in the oil pan increases. When the oil increases to a certain level, the oil warning light will light up. If the user ignores the alarm, the continuous operation of the vehicle may affect the engine friction pair and the movement pair. In extreme cases, the engine will be damaged and there is a safety hazard.
