On June 26, 2024, a Chinese woman driving a NIO car in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, was shocked when the accelerator pedal broke while driving normally. Suspecting poor-quality plastic, she shared the incident online, questioning how an accelerator pedal could break. NIO customer service explained that it was designed to prevent accidents from accelerating again post-incident, but this explanation led to criticism online. Repair experts stated that this was not normal, as the accelerator pedal typically only breaks in severe collisions. Customer service later stated the pedal was made of engineering plastic and iron, promising further investigation into this unusual incident.
