Fang Cheng Bao Leopard 5 recalled over possible loose controller bolts and fire risk
On some Fang Cheng Bao Leopard 5 vehicles, bolts on the integrated dual-motor controller may not be tightened, which in extreme cases could lead to smoke and fire. Separately, a blogger posted a test claiming "18 liters per 100 km"; BYD sued and won. A total of 6,843 vehicles are being recalled from January 24, 2025, with free controller replacement.
