Tesla Inc. and at least eight other automakers are recalling millions of cars in China over safety concerns with their door handles, a major step to address flaws that have led to vehicle entrapment and multiple fatalities.
More than 4 million vehicles are affected as part of the broad crackdown, one of the most sweeping recalls ever in the worlds biggest auto market. Tesla accounts for the largest share, with nearly 3 million vehicles included in the action announced Friday.
特斯拉公司及至少八家其他汽车制造商因车门把手安全隐患,正在中国召回数百万辆汽车。此举旨在解决已导致人员被困车内及多起死亡事故的设计缺陷。
作为此次大规模整顿行动的一部分,全球最大汽车市场有超过400万辆汽车受到影响,这是史上范围最广的召回之一。特斯拉在此次行动中占比最大,上周五公布的召回名单中包含近300万辆特斯拉汽车。
