According to the State Administration for Market Regulation, Zhaoqing Xiaopeng New Energy Investment Co., Ltd. has filed a recall plan with the State Administration for Market Regulation in accordance with relevant requirements. Starting from August 28, 2026, a total of 33,473 XPeng X9 vehicles manufactured between August 8, 2023 and August 11, 2025 will be recalled. For some vehicles within the scope of this recall, due to fluctuations in manufacturing processes, the airtightness of the front air spring may deteriorate. After prolonged use in high-temperature and high-humidity environments, the front air spring may slowly leak air, thereby triggering the illumination of a warning light and a text alert. In extreme cases, this may affect vehicle handling and pose a safety hazard. The company will replace the improved front air spring strut assembly free of charge for vehicles within the recall scope to eliminate the safety hazard.
