On November 11, BYD issued a statement regarding the incorrect installation of wheel rims on certain vehicles. Following verification, the issue was traced to coding entry errors at wheel rim assembly supplier Hubei Boyu Industrial Co., Ltd., which led to incorrect installation on some vehicles. BYD immediately conducted troubleshooting and corrected the codes to prevent similar issues in subsequent batches. The supplier has also introduced measures such as visual error-proofing on new production lines to prevent recurrence over the long term. Special testing confirmed that the affected vehicles are unaffected in terms of handling and pose no safety risk during driving. BYD will invite owners of the affected vehicles to visit their local service stores for a free inspection and professional wheel rim replacement, and will also provide courtesy vehicles or transportation expense compensation. BYD expresses its sincere apologies, will restart the vehicle warranty for the incorrectly assembled vehicles starting today, and will conduct a comprehensive review while working with the supplier on continuous improvement.
