The logistics issue was resolved as follows: the parts are supplied by one of AvtoVAZ's subsidiaries, registered abroad and working directly with Renault. Thanks to this, it was possible to establish logistics, the French concern does not violate the restrictions and does not fall under sanctions.
The reorientation of warranty cars to Lada dealers ensured their loading. At some points there are constant queues, as the number of cars is more than usual. But the problem is promised to be solved in the coming weeks by hiring new employees and expanding working space. Let's see what drivers say about the current situation:
Those who came up with sanctions and prepared restrictions, didn’t they understand that it’s easy to find ten workarounds for any ban? The West stood up for globalization and made good money on it. And now some are thinking how to strangle the Russian economy, while others are finding ways to work without risks. Strange situation.
Konstantin R. said
Good news, I have a Sandero, I need to drive for service in 2 weeks. I was afraid that there were no spare parts, I didn’t know where to go - the Renault dealership was closed. Now everything is clear. It's good that we were able to establish logistics, buyers should not suffer.
Roman Dmitruk shared his opinion
It was clear that the issue of spare parts would be resolved, too many cars were sold in Russia. Yes, and you can also make money on this, Renault plants sell a lot of spare parts to the Russian Federation, cutting off this market is unreasonable from a business point of view. It is surprising that everything can be implemented so simply - he created an intermediary company and carry what is under sanctions.
– the user “Gelendwagen” expressed his point of view
Before leaving the market, Renault filled all warehouses with spare parts for repair and maintenance, so that there would be no shortage during the transition period. The French did not want to leave for Russia, but they were forced to. What to do, politics still dominates business.
Peter D commented.
If specialists from the Renault service have switched to Lada dealerships, everything will be in order. But there is a suspicion that the work is done by those who have been spinning VAZs all their lives, and this is not very good. But let's hope that the qualifications of the repairmen will allow us to do the job normally.
- summed up Stanislav Leonidovich.
