Chinese metal is weird. Supposed to be steel but is more like lead. Much of it is both soft and brittle at the same time which is bizarre.

This is reassuring:
“Cerberus-owned Chrysler last month finalized a deal making Chery its partner to develop a range of small cars for sale in the U.S., and has vowed to work with the Chinese to improve vehicle safety”

AvtoRevu, a leading Russian auto magazine, conducted a crash test of the Chery Amulet, the best-selling Chinese car in Russia, and said the car was one of the worst performers it has ever seen.But it did get 40 mpg and only cost $10K.

This gets the Youtube video of the year award. What China needs is a stronger crash dummy.

"..AvtoRevu said it had to dismantle the test dummy to remove it from the car..."
Ouch! Reminds me of a story a lady told me about her new Yugo. She ran over a curb and totaled it.
To: TigerLikesRooster
a Chery Amulet sedan's front end folded like a concertina in a recent trial here. You are all capitalist pig's.
It is obvious that you used too hard of a barrier in this so called 'test'.
There is nothing wrong with our cars.
Or our toys.
Or our food.
And we have corrected any problems, with anything.
Everything we make is safe.
For everyone.
Trust us!
Or we will nuke your economic structure.
We are a trusted, global, friend, yes?
The Party has spoken.
That is all.

I suspect they decided to selectively give out freebies.:-)
After all, total lock-up could lead to the reduction of its media market share.

I watched the test on YouTube earlier today. Shocking. Remember, this was at 40mph!
