A BMW dealer in eastern China called the police after a woman seeking compensation sat on a car’s bonnet in its showroom and put a dent in it.
It is the latest in a string of similar protests by consumers in the country after one in northeastern China earlier this month that forced a Mercedes-Benz dealer to give a woman a new car.
The woman said she wanted compensation because the airbags in her X1 SUV did not inflate in an accident, leading to people in the vehicle being injured. A video of the Mercedes-Benz owner, surnamed Wang, who sat on a car in Xian, Shaanxi province, while crying and accusing the dealer of wrongdoing has been viewed more than 200 million times on the internet.Since then, similar protests have been staged across the country.
In Changsha, Hunan province, a woman sitting on the bonnet of a Cadillac coupe was shown in a video asking staff in a showroom why they wrote the wrong date on her receipt.
