Kumho Tire announces re-adjustment of proportion of back rubber

On May 15, 2011, Kumho Tire announced the formal recall of the full moon. After two months of silence, Lee Han-ho, the chairman of Kumho Tire (China), took the top executives to Beijing for the first time to accept the media "torture." Lee Han-soo said that as of last Wednesday, 34,000 of the 320,000 tires announced had been replaced, and the completion rate was about 11%. In addition, 31,000 tires were free to be replaced through free tests in the recall batch.

At the same time, Kumho said that in the future, it will re-adjust the Kumho global eight production bases to return rubber compounding standards.

"Any caregiver was given a replacement"

Kumho began its recall on April 15 and involved 3 batches of tires in 7 batches. According to Kumho's data, as of last Wednesday, the completion rate of the 320,000 recalls within the last month was 11%, that is, 34,000 replacements.

“In some cities, there was a case where the tires were not replaced on the first day of recall. We were a bit ill-prepared before.” Kumho Marketing Department official said, but now it has been in place, from the Kumho factory to the dealer’s tire replacement. Has reached more than 200,000.

At the same time, Kumho announced that it will recall the Kumho tires that will be produced after March 2008 for free testing. If there are quality problems, it will be given free replacement. “Originally in accordance with the recall announcement, we only need to replace tires that have quality problems detected. However, in order to restore consumers’ confidence in Kumho tires, they will be replaced whenever they have any concerns about tires after testing. ". According to Li Hansong, the number of free replacement tires passed through free tests this month was 33,000, which is equivalent to the expansion of the scope of replacement.

Regarding the progress of the recall, Li Hanxi cited examples of tire recalls in the United States. Generally, it takes 3 months for the time to settle the points. The number of replacements that can complete 50% is considered as progress.

"Tianjin plant may resume production after 3 months"

In response to the issue of the recall's return-to-rubber ratio, Kumho said it will re-adjust the standard for the proportion of return rubber blends in the eight global production bases. As to whether the previous Chinese standards were in line with the standards of the other Kumho 7 major factories, Lee Han-ho explained that Kumho's global implementation of the standards for return rubber blending is the same. "This recipe for adding back gel was taken from a U.S. company 30 years ago and will be readjusted in the future."

Kumho said that if the recall progresses smoothly, the Kumho Tianjin plant that has been revoked by 3C certification will return to normal after three months. It is understood that the original 65% -70% of the factory tires for export, this part of the export business has resumed on April 26.

Since its exposure on March 15, Kumho’s retail business in the Chinese market has almost completely stagnated. Kumho statistics show that 16 million tires were sold in China last year, and sales have reached 40 million in the three years since 2008.
