Common Problem
TL;DR
The BYD Bao 5 2024 may have issues with door handles, emergency braking systems, and software bugs. Regular updates and dealer visits can help mitigate these problems.
Door Handle and Child Safety Warning Issues
One user reported a problem with the rear right passenger door handle not releasing outward, which required opening the front door to reach through. This issue is suggested to be addressed by visiting the dealer as it might be covered under warranty. Additionally, there are complaints about the child safety warning system activating unnecessarily, which can be turned off manually each time the car is started.
Emergency Braking System Concerns
Several users have experienced random emergency braking, particularly in urban environments or roundabouts. This is attributed to the emergency front braking assist feature, which is known to be problematic among Seal drivers. A future software update is expected to address this issue. The importance of updating the vehicle's software to improve safety features is emphasized.
Software Bugs and Updates
The BYD Seal has been criticized for its problematic software, with every update introducing different bugs. Users have reported issues with the front and rear sensors, which were broken by the latest OTA update. However, BYD servicing has confirmed that engineers are aware of these problems and will correct them in upcoming updates. Despite these issues, recent reviews have been more positive, suggesting improvements in the software.
General Reliability and Build Quality
While specific models like the Atto 3 have shown reliability issues related to the 12V battery and Android Auto connectivity , the overall build quality of BYD vehicles is generally praised. Users have reported minor issues but no major reliability concerns over several months of ownership.
