00:00Before watching the video, remember to check out the more content on trending websites.
00:04Buy a tire, tap a few buttons on your phone, and it can be shipped from overseas to you.
00:08At the doorstep
00:09The price is even tens of ringgit cheaper than locally.
00:12This trend of cross-border price reductions has recently affected Malaysian tire manufacturers.
00:17Wu Jianrong, the president of the association, had to speak out.
00:20He said that the tires are the only part of the car that directly contacts the ground.
00:25The safety of almost everyone in a car depends entirely on the tires.
00:31You absolutely cannot treat it like an ordinary daily necessity when buying it online.
00:33Because when you receive the goods, you can't verify the year of manufacture or the load-bearing capacity.
00:39grid
00:39What if you get a flat tire, deformed, or have an accident on the road?
00:43Finally, who should you hold responsible and who should compensate you?
00:47These words immediately sparked two opposing camps online.
00:50Some netizens commented that it's as if buying locally guarantees a warranty.
00:54However, some netizens cited real-life examples from their own lives to say...
00:57One of his friends bought four nude items on an overseas platform in an attempt to save money.
01:01Inner tire
01:02Shortly after the tire was installed, the tire blew out, the car went out of control, and the entire bare vehicle crashed into the roadside.
01:06Big Tree
01:07Can tires purchased from overseas platforms be used locally?
01:11More importantly, are overseas merchants even willing to sell to us?
01:15China Press wrote in their exclusive report today that...
01:19Their reporters inquired with the customer service of tire stores on Chinese e-commerce platforms.
01:23The answer I received was as follows
01:25Some merchants flatly refused, saying they wouldn't deliver to Malaysia.
01:28Some merchants have made their points very clear.
01:31Their tires are not suitable for use on Malaysian roads.
01:35That's something everyone must understand.
01:36Malaysian weather, road conditions, load capacity, and driving habits
01:40Different from the place of origin
01:41It's not that any tire that's round can be used.
01:44Well then, the Chinese businesses themselves have already explained the risks upfront.
01:48In other words, you buy tires online and install them on your car.
01:52If something goes wrong, the responsibility will likely fall on the consumer.
01:56However, not all merchants refuse.
01:59Some of these are willing to deliver to Malaysia.
02:02Tire shops on Chinese e-commerce platforms
02:04They also specified a shelf life of one to three years.
02:07That is, what we usually call a warranty.
02:10That warranty
02:11And they were very straightforward, saying that if your tires...
02:15The tire had a bulge after the goods arrived.
02:18It's that protruding piece of the coin.
02:20Or it could be that the rubber has cracked.
02:23As long as it wasn't damaged intentionally.
02:26What about the fuel cost for the tire refund?
02:28The merchants should bear the responsibility.
02:30It sounds very secure.
02:31But everyone should pay attention to this.
02:33They only covered the cost of fuel.
02:36That tire was shipped from Malaysia to mainland China.
02:39Waiting for the new one to be sent back
02:41It will probably take some time.
02:43How should I drive the car during this time?
02:46Who will bear that loss?
02:48More importantly, in the event of a tire blowout...
02:51What should be done if significant losses are incurred?
02:53In his guarantee
02:55Not a single word was preserved.
02:58Those so-called cheap tires bought online
03:00How much can be saved exactly?
03:02After sampling and comparison, China newspapers found
03:0414-inch tires on Chinese e-commerce platforms
03:07A single item ranges from RM35 to RM209
03:10As for the 15-inch size, it ranges from RM46 to RM240.
03:15Local physical stores?
03:16These two sizes cost approximately RM99 to RM200.
03:19Therefore, the price difference is only a few tens of ringgit.
03:23Moreover, some prices already include new tires.
03:26Install balancing
03:28Make the steering wheel not go to
03:29Pay the expiration date
03:31in other words
03:32That means the difference isn't that much.
03:34However, the guarantees are much worse.
03:37And don't forget
03:38You bring the tires you bought abroad to get installed yourself.
03:4114 to 15 inches
03:42The installation fee is RM25 to RM30 per line.
03:4415 inches and above?
03:46Say 80 to 100 ringgit
03:47If you calculate it this way...
03:48There really isn't much difference.
03:50The business owner also said...
03:51The shelf life of a typical tire is 4 to 5 years.
03:53As long as you take care of it.
03:54This package covers 20,000 to 30,000 kilometers.
03:57It's not a problem.
03:58What's even more noteworthy is...
03:59Some local business owners frankly said
04:02The customer brought tires they bought online to load.
04:04They don't specifically distinguish this quality.
04:07Anyway, you want me to pretend.
04:08I'll just pretend.
04:09Therefore, the Malaysian Tire Merchants Association
04:11That one sentence from the president, Wu Jianrong
04:13I need to say it again.
04:14Buy tires
04:15Sometimes it's not just about comparing prices.
04:17There is something more than security
04:18I'm optimistic.
04:19I'm optimistic.
04:25I'm optimistic.
04:26We are optimistic.
04:28I'm optimistic.
