The first batch of Song PLUS vehicles has gradually gone out of warranty, and recently I've seen quite a few fuel vehicles undergoing pre-warranty checks at the 4S shops. How have your vehicles been over these past four years, fellow car enthusiasts?

My car was involved in an accident in 2018, affecting the front bumper and radiator area. It was repaired at the 4S shop. For the past four years, there were no issues during the vehicle inspections. However, this year, the inspection technician said that the vehicle identification number in the engine compartment had been altered. What's going on with this?

Hi everyone, the electronic steering lock of my Chery Jetour X70 is broken and needs to be replaced. The 4S shop said it's no longer under warranty, so I have to replace it myself. It seems to cost several thousand. Does anyone know if the 10-year or 200,000 km warranty indicated by the lifetime warranty badge on Jetour still covers it? The steering system is an important part of the car. The car was registered in August 2020, so it's been almost four years. Does anyone know if this is still under warranty? Please help.

When driving the Song Plus fuel vehicle at high speeds, subtly adjusting the steering feels like the steering wheel is sticky and requires some effort to push. It feels heavy, and I have to constantly correct it without any self-centering rebound force. What's going on?

Why is the USB on my Song Plus Fuel Version not charging? Will I have to pay if I go to the 4S shop, considering it's still under warranty? If anyone knows, please let me know.

My car is just over 3 years old and has only 36,000 kilometers on it. The electric tailgate is acting up right after the warranty expired for a month. So frustrating! I asked about it, and they said it would cost over 2,000 to replace. Plus, at the 4S shop, they just told me it's out of warranty...

If I don't maintain my car at the 4S store after the four-year or 100,000-kilometer free maintenance period, will it affect the lifetime warranty?

After 8 years with my old petrol car, it started burning oil, and I noticed a lot of people around me were switching to electric vehicles. That got me thinking. I was originally planning to get the top-spec Tank 300 (Menglong), and during the National Day holiday I went for a test drive — it met my expectations.On the way back, I stopped by a Jetour dealership and saw the T2. My daughter instantly fell in love with the exterior and interior — it completely overshadowed the Menglong in her eyes. Looks clearly played a big role, and after a test drive, it felt good enough. Since I don’t really need 4WD for daily driving, I booked it right away. Looking back now, I do wish I had waited for the 4WD version — a bit more power would’ve been nice.For this type of vehicle, electric power saves a lot. For daily use, my cost is just around 0.10 AED/km (charging at home on off-peak rates of 3.3 AED/kWh). My daily round-trip to work is under 20 km, so I only charge every four days, when the battery hits around 20%.For long-distance trips, I don’t bother with charging — it’s too much hassle. I just set the car to preserve 60% battery and drive on petrol. Even if fuel consumption is slightly higher, it’s fine since I only do a few road trips per year.The car is heavy and feels solid on the road. Acceleration is decent, but the 4WD version definitely would’ve offered better power and confidence. I’ve had the car for over half a year now. So far, the only issue has been a slight noise from the steering system — which was fixed. Other than that, no major problems. Buying a car always involves a bit of luck anyway.The biggest downside is the driver assistance system — it lags behind the competition. The infotainment system has improved a bit with the latest 4.11 update, but it still has room for improvement.Overall, I’m quite satisfied. Compared to many newer EV startups, Chery is an established brand. The lifetime warranty adds a lot of peace of mind, especially on the powertrain and electric components.

Honestly, the Lexus LX570 after its mid-cycle update has become more eye-catching than ever. The exterior design is bold, with a mix of luxury and modern flair that attracts younger buyers — and even older ones might find it impressive. But once you step inside, especially after hearing it's a full-size SUV, you're surprised to find the interior space isn't as generous as expected. I'm 180 cm tall and weigh 70 kg, and after adjusting the driver's seat to a comfortable position, there was only about 8 cm of legroom in the back — which feels tight for a car at this price point. That said, the interior materials are undeniably premium — the leather is soft and luxurious, and the entertainment and comfort features help make up for the space issue. Performance-wise, the 5.7L V8 engine offers plenty of power, but the throttle response is smooth and gradual. The car feels heavy, and the hydraulic steering gives almost no road feedback, with a noticeable delay between input and response. It honestly feels like you're driving on a mattress — completely isolated from the road, which doesn’t inspire much confidence if you're driving aggressively on pavement. However, if you think of it as an off-road vehicle, the story changes. The light steering actually helps absorb kickback when driving over rough terrain, and the adjustable air suspension gives you flexibility depending on the terrain. Add to that full-time four-wheel drive and multiple off-road assist modes, and the LX570 is a real beast off the beaten path. It’s a luxurious SUV clearly built for adventure, rather than sharp on-road performance.
