SoCial特許經銷商聲稱召回並未解決 Prius 的安全問題，但汽車製造商表示這只是吃不到葡萄說葡萄酸。 Toyota says that a recall fixed hundreds of thousands of Prius models, but one of its own dealers isn't convinced. According to CBS News, Roger Hogan, a franchisee in Southern California is refusing to sell select used models of the hybrid because he is concerned the issue still poses a safety risk. Toyota 表示召回修復了數十萬台 Prius，但有一間自家經銷商並不相信。根據 CBS 的新聞報導，南加州的加盟商 Roger Hogan 拒絕出售 Prius 的二手車，因為擔心這個問題仍然存在安全隱患。 What's more, Hogan has filed a $100-million lawsuit against the automaker for fraud and breach of contract and is petitioning federal watchdogs to investigate the problem. 而且，Hogan 已經向 Toyota 提起了1億美元的欺詐和違約訴訟，並請求聯邦監管機構調查此問題。 According to the report, Toyota maintains that the suit isn't about safety at all -- they say it's about a grudge. (Disclosure: Roadshow by CNET and CBS News are owned by the same parent company). 據報導，Toyota 認為這指控根本不是為了安全，而只是在找碴。 The recalls, which were undertaken in 2014 and 2015, covered select 2010-2014 Prius hatchback and 2012-2014 Prius V wagon models. Around 800,000 units were part of the campaign. 這次召回在2014年和2015年進行，涵蓋了2010-2014年 Prius 和2012-2014年 Prius V。一共大約有大約80萬輛。 The crux of the issue, which involves a sudden loss of drive power, was blamed on an overheating inverter. Toyota performed a software fix and maintains that the issue has been properly dealt with, but Hogan says he's still seeing plenty of cars with the problem. 這個問題的關鍵在於動力突然下降，它被歸咎於過熱的逆變器。Toyota 進行了軟體修復，並認為這個問題已經得到妥善處理，但 Hogan 說他仍然看到很多車輛出現問題。 Hogan, who owns Claremont Toyota and Capistrano Toyota, says he's had more than 100 Prius models come into his dealerships with the inverter issue, even after the recall fix had been applied. In fact, he says he's sitting on about 50 used Prius models at his dealership worth about $1 million that he's refusing to sell because he fears they're unsafe. Hogan說，即使在召回修復後，他也在進到他車行超過100輛 Prius 遇過此類逆變器問題。事實上，他說在他的車行裡有約50輛 Prius二手車，價值約100萬美元，他拒絕出售，因為他擔心他們不安全。 In addition to his allegations around the Prius recall, Hogan's suit claims that the automaker is attempting to keep Hogan from transferring his dealers to his sons. 除了他對 Prius 召回事件的指控外，Hogan 的訴訟聲稱該汽車製造商正試圖阻止他將其經銷權轉讓給其兒子。 When reached for comment on the matter, Toyota issued Roadshow the same statement that it did to CBS News: 當就此事發表評論時，豐田公司發布了與它給CBS新聞相同的聲明： "We believe Mr. Hogan's allegations are without merit, and we intend to defend vigorously against his claims. The Prius inverter recall was implemented to enhance vehicle safety, and we remain committed to the safety and security of our customers. As a part of this commitment, Toyota continues to review and monitor available information on this issue. Toyota welcomes feedback from its dealers on vehicle performance and safety; however, we believe Mr. Hogan's lawsuit is motivated primarily by a separate dispute he has with Toyota over management and succession issues involving his dealership, not the effectiveness of the Prius inverter recall." “我們認為 Hogan 先生的指控毫無道理，就法院見吧。Prius 逆變器召回是為了提升汽車安全性而實施的，我們仍然致力於保護我們客戶的安全。我發誓，Toyota 將繼續審視和監測有關此問題的可用信息。Toyota 歡迎經銷商對車輛性能和安全性的反饋；但是，我們認為 Hogan 先生告我們主要是由於他與 Toyota 在管理和繼承經銷權問題上的單獨爭議，而不是 Prius 逆變器召回的有效性。“ The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration tells Roadshow, "The agency is monitoring its complaints and will take action as appropriate. Affected owners with information should contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration at 1-888-327-4236 or through www.safercar.gov." 心得/說明：看到這新聞好奇去找了一下台灣有沒有就這問題召回過 Prius 結果一找發現原來 Prius 被召回過好幾次 2010/2月剎車系統有可能失靈召回 https://news.tvbs.com.tw/world/82054 2014/2月動力系統(可能就是此文提到的問題) https://autos.udn.com/autos/story/7825/796414 2018/2月日本召回，同樣是剎車問題，台灣有車主被要求自費10萬(後續如何不曉得) https://tw.appledaily.com/new/realtime/20180222/1302261/ 2016/6月安全氣囊 http://www.chinatimes.com/newspapers/20160630000058-260202 2016/10月駐車剎車系統 https://www.kingautos.net/102652 2016/11月安全氣囊 https://www.lian-car.com/articles/read/23012.html 2018/2月安全氣囊 https://udn.com/news/story/6811/2962559 其實有召回(尤其是在還沒有事故發生前)都算是好事只是沒想到一查就這麼多，上面列的應該也不是全部的召回事件可能這些傳統車廠的召回大家習以為常，所以也就變的不是什麼令人很關注的新聞了 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 1.34.252.81 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/car/M.1523061048.A.7F9.html
