5. automobile industry greatly enhance the quality of China's auto market blowout
see that the Chinese automotive quality and design level of inevitable decline, and thus be a variety of malicious judgments and good tips and warnings will follow. from the point of warning prompt attention to China's auto industry sales growth and quality of products, harmonious growth is good, but if the hardware quality of the product sales growth and strong relationship between changes in tension as the reverse is not appropriate. < br> high profitability to ensure product quality .09 raw materials for China's auto industry slashed prices relative to 2008, while automobile prices relatively stable, economies of scale to increase substantially in 2009 car prices in China have little product cost pressures, which is to ensure that quality of the parts of the most basic protection. North America, Toyota's cost reduction due to problems in China, this lucrative market is almost non-existent.
rapid growth of independent brands, the upgrading of their products faster, at the same time improve the level of design and manufacturing and accumulated experience faster, so their own brand of product quality and design issues continued to decline, this decline in the rate of complaints against the major contribution.
international car before the general launch in Europe, ahead of consumers in Europe and America enjoy the new car at the same time, new car design and quality issues early in the U.S. and European consumers have been feeling, so that the Chinese consumer is also a risk prevention, the Chinese put the product reliability.
Chinese people do not work overtime resulting decline in quality. China is the world's rare overtime phenomenon, so Volkswagen executives, who said: The most attractive view of the job is to ensure that overtime hours per day, which reflects Chinese characteristics. automobile industry appears to affect the quality of strong sales and overtime, but overtime work has become a habit that many people do not have to work overtime must take blame to the decline in the quality of work. We are 7 days a week to dry, but also work late into the night to go home 2 points 15 hours a day to ensure that hard work, this is the spirit of the so-called 715. all know that overtime is not good, but the competitive society which There are not driving through, otherwise be eliminated.
6. the automotive industry can not recall seeing the problem
man plunging to consider not only how to do business, but also to consider a comprehensive social environment. changes in growth ways to enhance the level of technology and quality for many years the slogan has already been mentioned. The passenger car industry and international standards for better contrast and strong, so the domestic recall more. but because of the quality of the current problem is the small problem of domestic and more News and vicious attack and more (out of 315 that day reported a lot of features), so companies face enormous psychological pressure on the recall. early recall of some companies did not get the normal rational society recognized industry from a social point of view is often the quality of Jianguang Si, such as Sanlu milk powder issue.
raise the level of industry regulation and sound social environment is very important. If there is no reasonable improvement of social issues for various products and ways to enhance the comprehensive recognition, and their own individual requirements enhance the exposure of the recall and other improvements, auto companies to bear the social pressure, so after being hit by several companies will be easy to play down the problem to develop the habit.
7.
car service areas have been named The central station 315 on the automotive industry show pertinent question is well-intentioned criticism. The first is after-sales service prices high. service is the magic weapon for manufacturers to make money, but also to maintain the profitability of car sales body shop operator, or even lose money in sales, after-sales money This result must be the maintenance of injured consumers greater maintenance. followed by a larger decline in service satisfaction.

Beijing, new car prices low, which new car sales of low growth, large amount of maintenance to maintain profit margins is the main purpose built shop, and further improve the 4S flexible maintenance system is to safeguard consumer interests and the maintenance of profits retained major concern.
