Chery Omoda 5 rear axle allegedly detaches in stark repeat of 2024 incident

Social media is abuzz with photos and videos of a black Chery Omoda 5 stranded in the middle of a highway, with its rear axle allegedly detached from the vehicle’s chassis.

Per on-ground reports, the incident took place earlier today (Tuesday, 6 October 2026), in Tebrau, Johor Bahru. No injuries were reported.

Today’s incident looks similar to one that happened back in April 2024, involving a grey Chery Omoda 5.

In the wake of the 2024 incident, Chery released a media statement confirming the issue was an “isolated” occurrence. As a result, Chery recalled 600 cars with parts made between August 14 and 17, 2023.

In a statement by Chery Auto Malaysia VP Lee Wen Hsiang in May 2024, the root cause of the 2024 incident was identified to be a miscalibration of welding equipment at a vendor.

Chery has yet to release a statement on the latest incident. More to come as we have it.
