Chery Malaysia recalls 600 units of Omoda 5 over potential axle issue – rear beam to be replaced
Chery Malaysia has issued a precautionary safety recall on 600 units of the Omoda 5 over a potential axle issue. This comes following a viral social media post where a customer’s Omoda 5 apparently had its rear axle detach from the vehicle while driving.
So, not exactly “China panicking about EV disaster” which was the title of the video and an attempt to further discredit Chinese EVs, is it? Just a faulty part on a batch of cars, not uncommon.
If photoguy wants to be taken seriously, he needs to try harder.

That's correct you are posting your overly biased opinions which account for nothing, try posting facts for a change!
You are embarrassing yourself with the nonsense you make up and couple that with blaming everyone for Russias illegal invasion of Ukraine, everyone but Russia that is!
Lol. You are a laugh a minute.
In any case, the conflict will soon be over, the victor will most likely be Russia in spite of the western claims that 90% of their army has been decimated and they are reduced to fighting with shovels. The sanctions have helped its economy grow faster than any other European country and whoever sabotaged the pipeline has caused energy costs in Europe to soar, negatively impacting their competitiveness in the world arena.
Confiscation of Russian assets is leading to quicker de-dollarisation and loss of confidence in the western financial systems. Treasury bonds are being dumped like hot potatoes, more and more trade deals are being done outside of the dollar. Worrying signs for US hegemony. Debt levels rising, tax payers will be hurting, particularly future generations.
Biggest beneficiaries of this conflict are China and Russia. Oh, the irony lol.

But you go off on a tangent trying to "belittle", hence my post...
Besides, you are not the be-all and end-all on the subject.....
@josephbloggs put it better than I ever could. And if I’m not mistaken, he isn’t an EV owner, yet.
By the way, what’s with all the emojis? Practically every one of your posts contains at least one.

I’m just trying to be helpful and giving good advice. Wouldn’t want him to be stranded on the motorway because he filled his car with diesel instead of electrons. You might also do well to heed some of the advice posted by others.
P/s: I own an ICEV as well…

Lost the argument......change tack. Don't like you drivel being addressed then don't post it!
I didn’t realise we were having an argument. I’m not interested in arguing with you, especially as you don’t have the capacity to accept that you might be wrong. I’m just posting my opinions, as I have the right to do, for those who are interested and open enough to consider an alternative viewpoint.
Please feel free to stop reading and responding to my posts. You don’t have the authority to tell me to stop posting, same as I don’t have the authority to command you to read my posts.

If you are going to base your purchasing decision on the basis of misleading information and outright lies, then I suggest an EV might be too technologically advanced for you. The relatively simple step of depressing the brake pedal before pushing the start button might be too complicated.

Every unbiased, objective person in the world knows who the real aggressor is.
Points to note: You might not be the most biased Putin apologist on here but you're certainly in the top 1. That sentence is totally meaningless, false and misinformation. You make comments without any foundation whatsoever, basically you are wasting everybody's time with your playground posting. I can assure you that "Every unbiased, objective person in the world knows who the real aggressor is." does know who the real aggressor is and that would be Russia, you know the one that invaded Ukraine for no reason whatsoever other than to land grab and to rape and kill its citizens.
What prevents someone like you to refuse to see reality, it is not difficult to understand......for most of us that is!
Don’t you ever take a break from AN?
Also, why the desperate need to try and prove me wrong incessantly? Must have been some playground trauma in your childhood.

It’s interesting how AN is a microcosm of the collective west. The majority of posters are anti-Russia and their posts are mostly bereft of facts. The narrative is spearheaded by some ‘profuse’ American posters (just look at the post count to see who posts almost twice as much as anyone else). Any dissenting voices (like Oban and Fico) are quickly shut down, their views drowned out by a cacophony of insults and ridicule. Typical US style bullying.
Europe is being irreparably destroyed by the poor leadership of NATO and they are too afraid and incompetent to do anything about it.The fact that they dare not get to the bottom of the NS sabotage shows to the world the real perpetrator of this attack. A real Stockholm syndrome if ever there’s one.
The amount of confused emojis this post will receive is further proof of the above. Nothing is factually wrong. I have included my own opinions which western values supposedly will fight to defend my right to have. And yet, my post will likely come in for criticism with the usual “gibberish, nonsense, rubbish” etc adjectives.

Please explain very clearly.
Treat me as an alien who just landed on earth and wanted to understand "Ruzzia's security concerns" and how invading Ukraine alleviates them.
You are an enlightened poster who "did his own research" and aren't one of those people who would just parrot things and then not be able to explain them, right ?
Do your own research or not, it doesn’t matter to me. By misspelling Russia, you have already shown your prejudice so no amount of explanation or proof will change your western view.

Keep repeating your nonsense and one day you might one day actually believe it yourself. When your argue for the tyrant aggressor you don't have a hope in hell of people taking you seriously and you leave yourself wide open to ridicule!
Every unbiased, objective person in the world knows who the real aggressor is. Which country has the biggest military? Which country has invaded more countries than any others in the last 50 years? Which country has the most troops OUTSIDE of its borders? Which country spends more on its military than the next 5 or 6 countries COMBINED? Do I need to go on?
More than likely, you will have some nonsense reply like “you’re writing gibberish nonsense”.

Again your post is gibberish, I am the one that is defending Ukraines right to remain a sovereign country, I am the one that is concerned that Russia invaded Ukraine without provocation, you are the one making excuses why we shouldn't help people being massacred etc. You cannot honestly believe the nonsense you write.
What a load of B.s. You don’t even realise you are writing nonsense.

this is nonsense.
Ruzzia is already occupying parts of Moldova and Georgia. They won't stop there.
Also, I would like you and the other posters who say Ruzzia has "obvious security concerns" to explain what these security concerns are and in which scenarios and how the invasion of Ukraine, Georgia, Moldova would mitigate these concerns.
I’m sure you know very well what these security concerns are. You just refuse to accept that they are valid, as far as Russia is concerned. It’s not unlike US’s concerns when missiles were being sent to Cuba.
America’s actions all round the world (military bases, troops in Kinmen etc) is leading the world down the road to another major conflict. This is plain to practically everyone, except for those who are too obtuse or arrogant.

Don’t forget, Russia has a legitimate and very reasonable concern with security. Belarus is in their neighborhood, within their sphere of influence, so to speak. Riussia doesn’t want enemy nukes on their border. Since the fall of the Soviet Union, when Russia was promised that NATO would not expand Eastward, NATO has been doing just that. And so Russia is concerned. Moving nukes into Poland would be like waiving a red flag at a bull. Thinking the Russians will sit by and do nothing is not realistic.
Image an enemy power moving weapons and munitions (including nukes) into Tijuana, on the US border. The US would most definitely respond. That situation would not be tolerated. Or go back to 1962 and the Cuban missile crisis. Again, the US had a problem with that and we almost had a nuclear war.
The bottom line is this: ignoring Russia’s legitimate security interests isn’t going to work. Western leaders who seem to think otherwise are delusional morons of the highest order. Putin is not another Hitler intent on reassembling the Soviet Union. That’s just propaganda. The Soviet Union fell apart for good reason. Russia won’t make the same mistake twice. Anyway, the war to date has been a failure for the West and a disaster for Ukraine. The country is destroyed. Hundreds of thousands are dead. For what?
+100
You are completely correct of course. Most of the world knows this as evidenced by the number of countries not sanctioning Russia and continuing to trade with Russia and even hoping to join BRICS. The only countries that go along with the western narrative are western countries plus servant states like Japan and Korea. I suspect that some of these countries do so only because they are bullied and fear the bad things that might happen to them, such as you know, unilateral sanctions, possible sabotage of their critical infrastructure (like what happened to Germany) and maybe even, god forbid, regime change (like Ukraine 2014). Incidentally, be prepared for lots of bullying. You will be called a Putin mouthpiece, spreading Russian propaganda, a shill, troll etc. The usual B.S.
The goal of all this is clear to most; weaken Russia while at the same time benefiting the MIC that a former US president warned about. After that, shift attention to whom they consider their real adversary. The old divide and conquer playbook.
Of course Russia has no intention to invade or conquer any other country. This is, like you said, just propaganda, to justify continued military spending (cui bono). It is also projection by you know who. They sure would love to get their hands on the resources that Russia has.

No, not at all. But you are if you think Russia, who is winning overwhelmingly, will withdraw.
This is the problem some people and governments have. They are high on their own propaganda and illusions. Russia, with its far superior army is now just toying with Ukraine. Pick off a unit here and there, take a village here and there. Reports of Ukrainian soldiers surrendering, of elite Azov units unwilling to fight.
Writing is on the wall but some are just too blind to see. Poor Ukraine.

Very true too.
But answer a simple question if you will. Say you are Bobby Fisher playing a game of chess (in case you never heard of Bobby Fisher) with an average club player and you are up a queen, a rook, 2 knights and 2 bishops. Would you offer a draw to your opponent?

Did anyone tell you that you are clueless about EVs? EVs are more efficient in city driving than ICEVs.
1 hour ago, redwood1 said:The single biggest drain on your EV battery, other than actually driving, is climate control. Whether that's keeping you cool in summer or toasty in winter, systems typically require about 3-4kW to run, which equates to seven miles of range per hour to run the air-con and five miles per hour to run heaters.May 18, 2566 BE
Yes Aircon is a huge emery suck on the EVs battries.....
Don’t know which part of your anatomy you pulled this out off but naturally, the longer you have your climate control on, the more energy you consume. I know from first hand experience that my car uses only about 1 - 2 kWh for my air-con.

Not only are they higher quality, but I get to deny the subsidized Chinese factories, and the heinous CCP. Call it whatever you like. Makes no difference to me. Never been particularly concerned with criticism, nor name calling.
Why? Closer ties to China are not a good idea. They are up to no good. Their intentions are heinous. Their desire for power and dominnance knows no bounds. They cannot and should not be trusted. They are NOT a reliable ally, and are not a good or trustworthy world power. They are only one step above Russia, on the trust scale. Worldwide slavery, and organ harvesting? No thanks Xi.
Perhaps the Chinese should educate themselves on what their own government is doing to the minorities in the West, and Falun Gong members.
Falun Gong practitioners across China are subject to widespread surveillance, arbitrary detention, imprisonment, and torture, and they are at a high risk of extrajudicial execution. The party-state invests hundreds of millions of dollars annually in the campaign to crush Falun Gong, while simultaneously engaging in exploitative and lucrative forms of abuse against practitioners, including extortion and prison labor.

The Chinese government has imprisoned more than one million people since 2017 and subjected those not detained to intense surveillance, religious restrictions, forced labor, and forced sterilizations.
