Huanhuan bought an Audi A6 AR, but it was found to be an accident.
The owner, Mr. Li, told time finance that the quasi new used car Audi A6, which he bought at Beijing mingzun Aoxiang 4S store for 550000 yuan, was recently detected to have had a major accident and was judged to be a total loss car at that time. "At that time, I chose to go to the 4S store to buy because the 4S store had more credit than ordinary car dealers. I didn't expect it to be like this."
The 4S store offered Mr. Li a refund or a price difference for a new car. In this regard, Mr. Li does not recognize it. He believes that the 4S store has fraud and should "refund one and compensate three".
At present, Mr. Li has filed a lawsuit. The Beijing Chaoyang Court has accepted the case and is expected to hold a court session before October. The car is still parked downstairs of Mr. Li's house. Mr. Li said that he is still driving at ordinary times. That is, we should pay attention to "mainly due to the diaphragm in his heart".
spent 550000 yuan to buy second-hand Audi A6 ar
In September 2021, Mr. Li first browsed through the website of auto home and took a fancy to a second-hand Audi A6 allroad (referred to as A6 AR). The car is displayed as a 4S store direct sale, which is a quasi new car. The former owner bought the car on December 18, 2020 and sold the car in March 2021. The meter shows that the mileage is only 6000 kilometers and the price is 558000.
Compared with the new car, the discount of the used car is not much. Zhou Zhi told time finance that the guidance price of Audi A6 ar new car is 560800 yuan and the landing price is about Shanghai Pudong Development Bank Co.Ltd(600000) yuan.
"Although the discount is not high, the car is new enough, which is equivalent to a discount of 50000 yuan a month. 50000 yuan is not a decimal." Mr. Li said. This is also the reason why Mr. Li likes this car. Zhou Zhi said that with his understanding, buying A6 ar really likes the owner of Audi, especially Audi station wagon.
Moreover, considering the complexity of the second-hand car market, "4S store direct sale" and "Audi officially certified car" make Mr. Li feel guaranteed. The external publicity slogan of the 4S store also highlights Audi's strict certification of official used cars, such as no more than 60 months of service life, no more than 150000 kilometers, no major accidents, no major modifications, true and reliable maintenance records, 110 testing standards and so on.
So Mr. Li spent more than 550000 yuan at Beijing mingzun Aoxiang 4S store to buy these two second-hand 2020 imported Audi A6 ar cars.
the vehicle involved had a serious traffic accident
Unexpectedly, Mr. Li's beloved Audi had a serious traffic accident.
After Mr. Li bought the vehicle, in daily use, the vehicle frequently had small problems, abnormal interior noise and fault light on the instrument panel. Mr. Li can only send the vehicle to mingzun Aoxiang 4S store for maintenance, but he was accidentally told that the B-pillar of the vehicle may be damaged.
Later, under Mr. Li's questioning, the 4S store admitted that there had been a serious traffic accident, but said it didn't know.
It is reported that the car once had a serious traffic accident in the tunnel, resulting in serious damage to the headlights on the right side of the car, the central grid and some engine compartments. In addition, the main and co driver's airbags and side air curtains of the vehicle are all ejected.
Mr. Li knew nothing about the above information when he bought the car. Mr. Li said that because he trusted the 4S store too much, he didn't ask to see the 110 test reports of Audi used cars at that time, and he hasn't got them now.
Time finance contacted Beijing mingzun Aoxiang 4S store. A staff member said he was not familiar with the used car business in the store. Earlier, in response to an interview with the reporter of "rule of law" of Beijing TV station, the 4S store admitted that it did not see the accident car during the test.
Zhou Zhi (a pseudonym), a practitioner of auto information trading platform, told time finance, "the biggest advantage of official used cars compared with car dealers is that they are reliable, but the price will certainly be more expensive, but the negative impact of this is great. However, dealers are really difficult to control. Ordi estimates that there are 500 or 600 dealers in China, and dealers have their own companies, so dealers are very complex."
Zhou Zhi said, "if the incident further ferments, it should have a great impact on Audi. Audi now attaches great importance to the official sale of second-hand cars. In theory, this problem should not occur. It is estimated that the official of Audi may punish the dealer."
total loss car can still be insured
In addition, Mr. Li believes that the "total damage" of the car is quite controversial.
A "three party liability claim" provided by Mr. Li shows that the amount of vehicle damage is 272000 yuan, which is defined as a total loss vehicle.
An insurance company employee told time finance that for low-end models, total loss basically means scrapping, but for high-end cars such as Audi, it may just change two headlights and a bumper. For this three party liability claim form, the other party's car was hit by the car insured by us, which was treated as a total loss and paid 270000.
Although Mr. Li said that the accident map was the insurance of the other party, the time finance and economics inquired that the three-party liability claim form was part of the A6 ar insurance policy involved.
It can be seen that the 270000 compensation should be paid by the former Audi owner to the other owner in the accident. It is also the other vehicle that is judged as a total loss, not the Audi.
In addition, it can be testified that if the A6 AR is a total loss vehicle, it cannot be insured. The employees of the above insurance companies told time finance that all total losses have records, insurance companies mark class E vehicles, and there is no way to calculate the premium. It is difficult to get on the vehicle damage insurance if the records can be found on the platform.
Mr. Li said that he had no problem using the insurance directly from the 4S store. But in any case, this used Audi A6 AR with a price of 550000 is an accident car.
For Mr. Li's appeal of "one refund and three compensation", Lawyer Zhang Yue of Beijing Jing'an law firm told time finance that whether to refund one compensation and three compensation depends on the specific judgment of the impairment of vehicle value caused by major accidents. If the previous accident appraisal has shown a total loss, it is obvious that you can sue for three times the compensation. On the other hand, if 4S stores publicize non accident vehicles, it is another matter, which indicates that there is a subjective intention to engage in fraud. Article 55 of the law of the people's Republic of China on the protection of consumers' rights and interests, if operators commit fraud in providing goods or services, they shall increase compensation for their losses according to the requirements of consumers, The amount of increased compensation shall be three times the price of the consumer's purchase of goods or the cost of receiving services; If the amount of additional compensation is less than 500 yuan, it shall be 500 yuan.
Some netizens joked, "550000 can not only be returned, but also 1.65 million. Congratulations to the distinguished Porsche Cayenne owner."
