Q&A

After receiving the car, I found that the 12V battery was dead and couldn't start, or the wiper rubber was aging. Does this count as a quality breach on your part?

No, it does not. International shipping (especially RoRo) usually takes 30 to 60 days, during which the vehicle is stationary. A dead 12V battery, natural tire pressure loss, and even wiper aging due to temperature differences are all reasonable physical wear during long-distance transport. We strongly recommend that overseas buyers bring a portable jump starter and an air pump when picking up their vehicles at the port.

Does the steering system have any play, unusual noises, or signs of power steering pump leakage?

During the stationary steering test, the technician will check the smoothness of the steering wheel from full left to full right, looking for any unusual noises from the steering gear; they will also inspect the hydraulic power steering pump (if present) and the seals of the steering column for any hydraulic fluid leakage.

Can you handle the complex communication regarding Scrap Tax and e-PTS for the Russian market?

Our responsibility ends with delivering the vehicle to the Russian border or Far East port and providing the legal Chinese export documents. The payment of Scrap Tax, application for SBKTS (Vehicle Structure Safety Certificate), and activation of the final e-PTS electronic passport must be fully handled by the Russian buyer and their local customs broker.
