At the autumn new product launch conference of the global first-line navigation brand Jiaming on September 8, the reporter learned that Jiaming is recalling 1.25 million units of the world s navigation system, and the Chinese market involves a total of about 10,000 units.
There are two Chinese products involved in the recall, the models are nüvi 260W and nüvi 200W. Regarding the cause of the recall, An Zhidong, the marketing director of Jiaming Asia Pacific, explained that most of these navigation products are old products from 2008. The rechargeable batteries have the potential to overheat on some host circuit boards. There is a possibility of spontaneous combustion. There are currently relevant cases worldwide.
Lin Yaodong, the general manager of Jiaming China Branch, told reporters that users can log in to Jiaming's official website and enter the product serial number into the detection system on the website to check whether their navigator products are among the recalled products. You can contact the company's customer service, and Jiaming will contact the user as soon as possible. All costs incurred during this period will be borne by Jiaming. [twenty two]
At the end of August, Garmin announced a global recall of 1.25 million nuvi series GPS navigation products, saying that the recall may cause fire hazards due to overheated batteries. According to statistics, about 1.25 million units have been affected. Garmin Corporation of the United States has probably received 10 PND battery overheating incidents. However, there have been no casualties due to this problem.
The global recall models are 200W, 250W, 260W and 7xx, 7xxT and other products. The third-party supplier that currently provides battery products has not been named. The Garmin company also responded immediately, issuing an announcement and a recall method. For such a large-scale and synchronous recall decision, Garmin itself has a very large impact, and the stock price fell 0.26% on the day. [twenty two]
Having problems with the product I bought two years ago? It doesn't matter that Garmin still hasn't forgotten the old users. This sentiment can certainly be recognized by many loyal users, and it is also a future guarantee for consumers who do not know Garmin. [twenty two]
