Changes in the "three guarantees" within and outside the automotive industry will be introduced in March next year

Recently, the reporter learned from relevant government agencies and authorities in the industry that the “Responsibility Regulations for the Repair, Replacement, and Return of Household Automotive Products” (hereinafter referred to as the “Three Guarantees” for cars), which was delayed for ten years, will be introduced in mid-March next year.

The authoritative sources stated that "the previous "Three Guarantees" vehicle has been issued to enterprises for comments, and the current contents have not been changed in principle, and only some details have been added."

The company first tests the "three bags"

In January of this year, the AQSIQ solicited opinions on the “Three Guarantees” for automobiles for the last time, and ended in early February. The solicitation of opinions has changed somewhat from last September. For example, in the latter edition, it was clearly stated that the effective term of the three-pack of domestic automobile products was not less than two years or the mileage of 50,000 kilometers. The previous rule was 40,000 kilometers.

In addition, the latter version clearly stated that the major safety and quality problems such as the failure of the steering system, failure of the braking system, cracking of the vehicle body or fuel leakage, etc. may be returned within 60 days from the date of the purchase of the automobile invoice for the family car product or within 3,000 km. The previous rule was 30 days.

In addition, how to solve the problem of automobile quality disputes, the latter version puts forward a channel that the AQSIQ can organize the establishment of an expert library for dispute resolution of household automotive products; after the parties to the dispute agree, quality and technical supervision at all levels Departments and relevant agencies can choose experts to participate in mediation work.

In response, automobile manufacturers have begun to recognize similar business "Three Guarantees" business, such as Beijing Automotive announced in June this year, its "Three Guarantees" implementation details, stipulated that if the vehicle due to product quality issues within the definition of 20 In case of one of the serious safety performance failures, consumers can choose to withdraw their vehicles, change vehicles or repair within two months after they are sold or within 3,000 kilometers; Dongfeng Nissan also announced this year at the Guangzhou Auto Show, the NISSAN brand and the Qichen brand. The new car, because of the vehicle itself, has a quality problem within a certain range, and it is replaced within 7 days since the invoice was issued.

According to industry experts, the “Regulations on the Recall of Defective Automobile Products”, which was passed by the State Council and formally implemented on January 1st next year, has a driving effect on the introduction of the “Three Guarantees” vehicle. "Car recall is the premise of the automobile 'Three Guarantees' service. At present, the recall of cars has already been implemented. The problems such as 'difficulty proof', 'hard to certify', and 'difficult to claim' facing the car's 'Three Guarantees' can be gradually solved. ."

Core components are subject to people

The non-standardization of the domestic auto industry is not only reflected in services, but also in the area of ​​R&D. According to a recent survey conducted by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (hereinafter referred to as "China Automobile Association"), about 80% of the domestically produced automatic transmission passenger cars are equipped with imported automatic transmissions, and the remaining 20% ​​are mainly from foreign-funded joint ventures. .

In this regard, experts from the Automaker Association introduced that because China's automobile core parts and components policy has not imposed restrictions on foreign investment, component technology has become a bottleneck restricting the growth of independent brands. According to statistics, only one item of automobile transmission, China's annual import is about 100 billion yuan, and it is still growing at an annual rate of more than 20%.

However, according to Chinese market data, automatic transmission applications accounted for more than 50% last year, and most of the joint venture products have begun to use 6AT, even if the public, so the previous "DSG event" in the new model uses 6AT. Chen Hongsheng, deputy general manager of Geely Automobile Sales Co., said that currently 6AT is mainly used in mid-to-high-end vehicles, and its product profit is also relatively higher.
