Mitsubishi Electric, a major electronics manufacturer, has revealed that it has been shipping parts for in-vehicle radios that do not meet local performance standards to European automobile manufacturers for more than three years.

It means that he had submitted documents that falsified the performance to the shipping destination.

According to the announcement, from June to October 2017, Mitsubishi Electric will provide European automakers with more than 335,000 in-vehicle radio parts that do not meet the performance standards set by local authorities. It means that it was shipped.



In June 2017, a new standard for wireless devices was applied locally.



The company said that the product it shipped did not meet this standard, but submitted a false document to the shipping destination stating that it "meets the standard".



In addition, an external evaluation agency used a modified product to pretend to meet the standards during the performance verification test.



After further investigating the facts, Mitsubishi Electric has a policy of disposing of related employees. "We deeply apologize for the inconvenience caused to our customers and related parties. We will thoroughly implement measures to prevent recurrence and strive to restore trust. I will go. "
