After entering 2022, new energy vehicles will develop explosively, and BYD Auto's sales have skyrocketed. As of June, the monthly sales volume has exceeded 100,000 vehicles for 4 consecutive months, and it is still increasing rapidly month by month. BYD's current market sales performanceExcellent, but the accompanying problems are still not optimistic, mainly product quality and quality control.

 

The Tang DM is equipped with a ternary lithium battery produced by BYD. The responsibility for the battery is fully borne by BYD. Now there is a potential safety hazard in the battery pack tray, which is also a part of the battery and can directly affect the safety of the battery. Improper handlingThe safety of users' life and property cannot be guaranteed. As we all know, BYD started with batteries, which is also the most proud of BYD, and its technology is also ahead of the same industry in the world, but battery pack trays don't seem to be cutting-edge technology products!Now that there are safety hazards in the battery pack tray, can it be explained on the side that there is still a lot of room for improvement in the quality control of BYD Auto's accessories, which may also be a shortcoming of BYD Auto.

 

Said a thousand words and ten thousand, the safety of users is always the first, the product has potential safety hazards, and timely recall is not bad. While giving praise to BYD Auto, I also suggest that BYD Auto's quality control should be improved as follows, to prevent problems fromIt's really safe before it happens. Don't wait for a tragedy to happen before it's too late to regret it. At any time, safety is above everything else, so that car companies can go further.
