Electric car maker BYD has apologised after some of its flagship Great Tang SUVs left the factory with their front and rear wheel rims swapped over. Owners spotted the mix-up and quickly complained online. BYD blamed a coding error at a wheel supplier, said its own tests found no safety risk, and is offering free checks, replacement rims and a fresh warranty to affected drivers.
