      中国第一汽车集团公司将委托一汽奔腾轿车有限公司免费为召回范围内的车辆进行检查,如果车辆安装的是受影响的火花塞,则更换为其他品牌的火花塞;如果因原车火花塞问题已造成点火系统的主要零部件(ECU、点火线圈、保险丝等)损坏,则更换相关部件,以消除安全隐患。

    • 本次召回范围内车辆由于火花塞与点火系统匹配不良,EMC电磁兼容性测试值偏高,使干扰电压回馈给主电路,造成点火系统的主要零部件(ECU、点火线圈、保险丝等)强烈干扰;另外,由于个别火花塞螺杆安装长度错误或采用错误的螺杆导致的内部电阻空腔问题,会产生更大的干扰电压,而持续的大干扰电压更容易造成点火系统的主要零部件(ECU、点火线圈、保险丝等)的损坏。可能造成车辆发生抖动、发动机失火、无法启动等,极端情况下可能出现车辆行驶中熄火现象,存在安全隐患。
    • 决定自2020年7月15日起,召回2015年9月18日至2016年11月27日期间生产的部分奔腾B30轿车,共计45406辆。
