Auto parts maintenance guidance issued and implemented

The Ministry of Communications, jointly with 9 ministries and commissions, issued the "Guidance Opinions on Promoting the Transformation and Upgrading of the Automobile Maintenance Industry and Improving the Service Quality," positioning the automobile maintenance industry as the people's livelihood service industry, and forcing the public disclosure of vehicle maintenance technical information. At the same time, the original manufacturer of parts and components is encouraged to sell to the automobile. The market provides original accessories and independent aftermarket accessories with independent trademarks, allowing 4S stores to resell genuine parts to unauthorized maintenance companies or end users. The introduction of the "Guiding Opinions" is expected to improve the status of auto aftermarket accessories such as genuine and fake parts, poor maintenance services, lack of industry standards, and lack of supervision. Subsequently, the "Guidance Opinions," the specific promotion and implementation steps, how to ensure the implementation of policies and other issues become the focus of discussion in the industry.

At the "Changes, Strategies, and Developments" conference to build a new pattern of China's auto maintenance industry (Beijing), Wei Tongwei, secretary general of the China Automobile Maintenance Parts & Accessories Industry Committee, said that in order to complete the transformation and upgrading of the auto parts maintenance industry, it is necessary to first construct a modern service market for the maintenance industry. System; Secondly, establish a unified code system for repair parts; thirdly, strengthen quality standards and implement inspection and certification; and fourthly, create reliable car brands and promote industry certification marks. At the same time, it actively cooperates with various competent authorities to crack down on security.

In the automotive maintenance industry, counterfeit and shoddy products have been plagued by both inside and outside the industry. Xie Ying, secretary-general of the China Association of Automatic Identification Technology, believes that the establishment of a global unified coding system is expected to improve the chaos of fake and shoddy products. Establishing unique identification for accessories can distinguish between true and false, which is conducive to effective management by the government and industry. In addition, the establishment of a non-unified code is also conducive to the brand's development of parts, maintenance service quality evaluation and maintenance quality responsibility definition, consumer satisfaction survey and complaint acceptance, insurance claims, financial services, government supervision, etc. Platform services provide standardized data bases. Xie Ying said that at present, the local standards for "universal coding and labeling of auto parts and components" are being gradually introduced, and national standards are expected to be completed in November this year for approval and approval of the standard, which is expected to be promulgated as soon as possible.

In addition to promoting a globally harmonized code, the China Association of Automobile Repair Industry will strengthen quality standards and promote product testing. According to Qian Heng, Shandong Research Institute of the National Standards Institute, as the consumer chooses the Yuesao can be measured by a series of standards, the automobile maintenance industry as the people's livelihood service industry must also establish product standards and service standards to improve service quality.

According to Lu Jian, deputy director of the Auto Repair Parts Working Committee of the China Automobile Maintenance Industry Association, the establishment of third-party testing and certification can verify whether the performance of the vice factory parts is equivalent to that of the original parts, thereby encouraging more manufacturers to produce products that meet market requirements; The concept of “performance equivalent” was established to broaden the channels of accessories, effectively reduce the cost of vehicle maintenance, and provide consumers with more economical options.

In addition, to regulate the automobile aftermarket, the industry association will also establish a car brand that can be assured in the automotive aftermarket based on testing, and promote the industry certification mark. And actively cooperate with the competent authorities to counterfeit and protect.
