Core Viewpoint - Xiaomi's recall of certain SU7 standard electric vehicles highlights the evolving nature of automotive recalls, particularly in the context of software updates via Over-The-Air (OTA) technology, which is now recognized as a legitimate method for addressing product defects [1][6][7]. Group 1: Definition and Context of Recall - A recall is defined as the manufacturer's free action to eliminate defects in sold vehicles, which includes providing information about product defects and taking corrective measures [1]. - Defects can arise from design, manufacturing, or labeling issues that compromise safety standards, including critical failures like engine loss of power, brake failure, and battery fires [1]. Group 2: OTA Technology in Automotive Industry - OTA technology allows manufacturers to wirelessly update vehicle software systems to fix defects, enhance performance, and expand functionalities [2]. - The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the State Administration for Market Regulation have categorized OTA upgrades into four management types, including those for defect recalls [2]. Group 3: Implications of Software Defects - The recall of Xiaomi vehicles was prompted by insufficient recognition and response to extreme scenarios in the L2 highway navigation assist feature, which could increase collision risks if not addressed [5]. - Experts emphasize that the concept of recalls must adapt to the increasing role of software in vehicles, as software issues now warrant recalls just as mechanical defects do [3][6]. Group 4: Industry Trends and Statistics - As of 2025, there have been five OTA recall events affecting 1.6675 million vehicles, with significant growth in OTA recalls noted in 2024, which saw a 246.8% increase from the previous year [7]. - The growing reliance on OTA for recalls raises questions about the impact on vehicle resale value, with software issues potentially having less effect on depreciation compared to hardware defects [7]. Group 5: Regulatory and Future Considerations - There is a call for national or industry standards to regulate OTA upgrades and ensure transparency regarding vehicle issues and adjustments made during OTA processes [8]. - The State Administration for Market Regulation has indicated that companies must not conduct OTA upgrades without proper testing and must disclose any defects to customers [8].

Core Viewpoint - The recall of Xiaomi's SU7 vehicles, involving 117,000 units, aims to enhance the reliability of the advanced driving assistance system, despite not requiring physical part replacements, raising questions about the nature of recalls and the role of OTA upgrades in addressing safety issues [2][4]. Group 1: Recall Definition and Implementation - A recall is predicated on the existence of defects, and OTA upgrades are a method of executing recalls, which can improve efficiency and reduce costs [3][8]. - The National Market Supervision Administration has received 4,047 reports of OTA upgrade activities affecting 486 million vehicles by the end of 2024, with 19 OTA recalls involving 4.068 million vehicles in 2024, marking a 246.8% increase from the previous year [3]. - The definition of a recall includes actions taken by manufacturers to eliminate defects in sold vehicles, which can involve free repairs, replacements, or refunds [4]. Group 2: Nature of Xiaomi's Recall - Xiaomi's SU7 recall is classified as a passive recall, initiated under the investigation of the National Market Supervision Administration, rather than an active recall [5]. - The recall number for Xiaomi's SU7 indicates a safety defect, categorized as "I" for investigation-influenced recall, contrasting with other manufacturers like FAW Toyota and Xpeng, which have conducted active recalls [6]. Group 3: OTA vs. Recall - OTA upgrades are not equivalent to recalls and should not replace them; they are merely a technical service method that can be used to address defects [9]. - Tesla exemplifies the use of OTA upgrades to resolve defects, having recalled 1.1 million vehicles in 2023, primarily addressing software issues through OTA rather than physical recalls [7]. - The National Market Supervision Administration emphasizes that while OTA can enhance recall completion rates and reduce costs, it should not be used to evade the responsibilities associated with recalls [9].
