Brand lying flat, car owners suffer? DS7 owner repairs the car and ran 200 kilometers at a time, waiting for a year without parts

Friends who are familiar with us all know that we have never advocated that when you buy a car, you choose niche models. The so-called niche models are those whose brand influence in the domestic market is very average, sales are very small, or product settings Products that are not recognized by the vast majority of consumers. In many cases, these products may be cheaper than similar models, or they may be unique in design, which will attract the attention of a small number of consumers. But for these niche models, the follow-up problems after buying a car may be much more uncomfortable than the self-satisfaction when buying a car. And as time goes by, the negative results of buying niche cars will become more and more obvious!

Some time ago, we saw a case on the car complaint network platform. A DS7 (parameter | inquiry) model purchased by a car owner had a steering wheel horn button failure. The 4S shop tested and ordered the steering wheel horn wiring harness and other accessories from the manufacturer. As a result, a year has passed, and the car owner still has not waited for the accessories. And this car owner went to a 4S shop from where he was, and the mileage of a single trip was about 200 kilometers, so repairing this DS7 caused the owner to encounter a lot of distress, and the car has not been repaired so far!

This is the result of buying a niche car! Everyone knows that the so-called luxury brand DS under Peugeot Citroen has basically no sense of existence in the domestic luxury car market, and the overall sales are too low to be lower. How "miserable" has it been? DS's domestic joint venture partner, Changan Automobile, even sold 50% of Changan Peugeot Citroen's equity directly on the shelves. In the end, the DS brand fell into the hands of Baoneng Group in China. As for Baoneng Group, it is impossible for the DS brand to work hard in the true sense, because various signs indicate that the previously acquired Qoros Auto has been abandoned by Baoneng, so the prospects of DS may not be much different from Qoros. The key problem is that DS itself has a very low brand influence. In the domestic market, no one may be able to build this brand!
