KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 8 — Chery Auto Malaysia has moved to head off online speculation after images of a damaged Chery Tiggo Cross with a detached wheel and its axle spread on social media.
The incident happened when the Chery car collided with a Perodua Myvi on the New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE) yesterday.
“We wish to clarify that the damage to the front bumper and detachment of the wheel were a result of the accident and not due to a failure of the vehicle’s component parts,” Chery said in a statement.
It said its team had already contacted the customer involved and was providing the necessary assistance.
