BYD is recalling 183,211 Qin and Tang vehicles in China because brake-pedal stopper pads may crack or detach, Reuters reported. The affected vehicles were produced between 2014 and 2022, and the defect can cause the brake lights to remain on.

The company will replace the component without charge. The action spans a long production window and emphasizes the importance of small mechanical parts in electronically monitored braking systems, even as automakers focus attention on batteries and software.
