"Awning" Maybach? That doesn't sound right. It would be more appropriate for me to say that this car should be renamed "Umbrella Bach".
More than two million bought a luxury car, but it only leaked in two days? I'm afraid that this owner has bought a "parallel import"! But then again, this local tyrant's brain circuit is also peculiar enough - if the roof leaks, cover the colorful canopy? I'm afraid that even the designers of Maybach will have to scratch their heads when they see this operation.
It's dramatic enough to say that. Only two days after picking up the car, the central control began to "sing", and the co-pilot A-pillar was still "crying". Does this car feel that the new owner is not qualified and wants to lose his temper and go back to his parents' house? As a result, the engineers of the 4S shop were also confused - disassembled, assembled and disassembled, but they couldn't find what the problem was. This picture, no matter how you look at it, looks like several "elementary school students" studying "advanced math problems".
What's more interesting is that when the owner proposed to change the car, the response of the 4S store was simply classic: "800,000 losses in 10 days." "Wow! This is faster than the stock market crash! At this rate, in another month, I'm afraid that this car will have to pay for people to drive away?
But on second thought, it's really not easy. After all, luxury cars are not the same as regular cars. You say change it, this part is all "foreign things", and the time to import is longer than the time to repair the car. Besides, the cars are all dismantled, and the cost of this depreciation will naturally rise.
However, the owner's response is also absolutely amazing. With a cover of colored tarps and a warning tape, the car suddenly changed from low-key luxury to "stray Bach". This operation is simply a "fashion makeover" for Maybach! If you put a few more patches on it, you might even be able to start a new trend - "punk luxury cars".
Seriously, when I saw this, I suddenly had a brilliant idea to start a business – to design a custom awning for luxury cars! Slogan is called "Let Your Luxury Car No More Tears". What do you think? Did you have a head?
To get back to the point, this incident actually reflects a lot of problems. First of all, even if it is a luxury car, quality problems are not impossible. Second, consumer protection is equally important in the high-end market. Moreover, the after-sales service level of 4S stores needs to be improved.
However, from a legal point of view, this is really difficult to say. Although there is a "three guarantees" clause in the "Provisions on the Responsibility for Repair, Replacement and Return of Household Automobile Products", I am afraid that it will have to be broken down in this case. After all, the cars have been dismantled, and it is not easy to prove whether it is a factory quality problem or acquired damage.
So, what to do when you encounter such a situation? I think it's better to calm down and negotiate better than to hype up the heat on the Internet. It's really not possible, just like the lawyer said, find a third-party appraisal and take the legal route. Of course, it's also important to keep an eye on when buying a car. After all, no matter how expensive a car is, it can't withstand the eyes of your old man!
Having said that, this matter has made a lot of noise, and I'm quite curious about the next development. You say, will there be other car companies to see the opportunity to have a "rainy day special" series? Or maybe Maybach simply launched a limited edition "canopy model"? If that's the case, I guess this car owner will cry and laugh - I wanted to defend my rights, but I didn't expect to give people free advertising.
By the way, guess what, how is this going to end? Is it a 4S store to change the car? Or is it the car owner who compromises to repair the car? Or maybe the two sides shake hands and have an afternoon tea together? Come on, come on, big guys!
