Aucma Freezers, Gas Stoves Fail Multiple Product Inspections; E-Bikes Recalled

According to a media review, products from Aucma Co., Ltd. have repeatedly had quality problems: in 2017, a refrigerator's measured power consumption exceeded its rated value and its energy-efficiency grade failed; in the fourth quarter of 2022, a gas stove failed sampling inspection on the "marking" item; in 2023, 10 TDT6782Z electric bicycles were recalled because their reflectors, lighting and horn devices did not comply with GB 17761-2018; in the 2025 national supervision spot check, two refrigerated/freezer cabinets failed on "freezing capacity" and still failed on re-inspection, and the products involved were removed from shelves. Impact and handling: combined with a 2025 loss of RMB 214 million, its product quality problems have drawn attention again; public reports did not state the specific penalty amount. Progress: regulatory notification. Entity involved: Aucma Co., Ltd. Related scope: related batches of Aucma freezers, gas stoves and electric bicycles.
