From:China Daily April 22, 2010

An analytical report on complaints about the quality of China's automobile products and related services showed that the country's automobile industry faced a grave quality situation in the first quarter of this year.

调查显示中国汽车质量问题日益严峻。

Complaints about cars that had quality problems within six months from the day of purchase accounted for more than 60 percent of all the complaints in the first quarter, up 9 percent from the fourth quarter of 2009, China Association for Quality said Monday in the report posted on its website.

在购买头6个月投诉问题中，质量问题占了60%。其中2010年第一季度，投诉上升了9%。

Compared with the same period of 2009, complaints over safety risks and carmakers' production defects rose nearly 15 percent, showing that car owners' safety awareness was increasing, the report said.

各类投诉中，关于质量问题和安全问题的投诉上升15%，显示出车主对安全意识的提高。

The report also showed that complaints over engine problems and flawed spare parts and accessories accounted for nearly half of all the complaints about automobile product quality, indicating that carmakers' quality control over its suppliers and key parts remained weak.

其中主要是引擎和配件和附件的问题，占了50%，显示出汽车行业对于配件供应商质量控制不足。

Complaints about quality problems of cars priced below 300,000 yuan ($44,000) accounted for 94.6 percent of the total, slightly down from the last quarter.

所有的投诉中，价格低于30万人民币的车型占了94.6%，稍微下降。

Cars in the 100,000 to 200,000 yuan group saw complaints rise 11.3 percent over the last quarter, with 80 percent of the consumers who complained about quality problems being first-time car owners, the report said, adding that a majority of the flawed cars were hot selling types.

而10万到20万的车型，投诉则上升了11.3%，其中大部分是第一次买车的，而且购买的车型是热卖类型的车。

Cars in the 50,000-100,000 yuan group experienced a decline in complaints in the first quarter, while those in the 500,000 to 1 million yuan group saw complaints grow 2.3 percent from the last quarter, the report said.

5万到10万价格区间，投诉下降；而50万-100万，投诉上升2.3%。
