A total of 12.5128 million cars were recalled in China last year, down 37.6 percent year on year, data showed.

Car-markers made 221 recalls in 2018, decreasing 12 percent from 2017, according to the State Administration of Market Regulation.

Some 1,700 recalls have been made involving 69.25 million cars since China established the system in 2004, saving consumers about 52 billion yuan (about 7.5 billion U.S. dollars).

The defect investigation by the regulator resulted in 6.7987 million vehicles being recalled, accounting for about 54 percent of the total recalls.

China is the world's largest auto market, with about 327 million car owners by the end of 2018.
