BYD (OTC:) is recalling close to 10,000 Tang DM vehicles made from September 2, 2021 to March 14, 2022, according to an announcement released today on China’s State Administration for Market Regulation website.
According to the announcement, due to a manufacturing reason, some of the vehicles in the recall range have an uneven mounting surface of the venting valve in the power pack tray, posing a risk of water ingress, according to the announcement.
The defect may cause the power battery system to experience electrical circuit failure, and in extreme cases there is a risk of thermal runaway of the power battery, posing a safety hazard, the announcement said.
