Nissan motor stop production of cars for Japan

[Sugimoto]

This year japan's car industries so happening.

 

1st is Kobe steel scandal, now Nissan also face trouble by allowing their unqualified staffs to QC their cars on final inspection stage before rolling off the assembly line.

 

Its across the whole range of their vehicles, not just 1 or 2 models involved.

Well at least the japs came clean and admitted their short falls.

 

Here.....nevermind.

[Heartlander]

Caught red-handed what?! What to do?   

 

Nissan is among the few car brands that I like, but mistake is mistake. No need sugar-coating.

 

Japan’s transport ministry said this month it had discovered that uncertified technicians at plants producing Nissan vehicles were using the stamps of certified technicians to sign off on final vehicle inspections, in violation of ministry guidelines.

It says only those manufactured for their domestic market is affected. As usual, local market ones are 'safe for consumption'

thats what the report says for now but there may be more findings later on. generally people would expect JDM to be of better QC than overseas markets.

 

hope no more new cases...

It also means if got PI do parallel import of Nissan Vehicles from Japan, those are affected as well.

let's see if any of the PIs do a recall.

NV200 petrol version is in the list.

 

I think those who got their NV200 1.6 petrol from PI will be affected.

overseas market totally not affected. if i recall from the report, this is because other countries will inspect the car when it enters their market. i think even for singapore, PI or not, sure will be inspected ma.

 

but anyway, if you read the article, this recall is nothing to do with anything wrong with the car. unqualified person check doesnt mean they purposely allow faults to go through also. so i think nothing to worry about, even for someone staying in japan and bought the car.

true but the unqualified person may have missed some potential faults and problems which a qualified person would have picked up... maybe 99.9% of the cars would habe passed the qualified person check, but there is still the possibility of the 0.1%...

If any ah mao ah gao can certify fhe product, what use is the certified technician?

 

It's not about whether there's anything wrong with the product in the end.

ultimately the lapse of certified technician check may have resulted in some defective or unsafe product being used on the road, which is the worrying part.
