The spare parts did not have qualification certificates and inspection reports.

Under Chinese law, goods without the certification are not legitimate and may not be sold in the market, said Pan Wei, an official with the administration.

The parts have been traced back to Toyota Motor Warehousing & Trading Co, a Shanghai-based Toyota subsidiary in charge of distributing auto parts to Toyota stores in 皇冠体育app, he added

Most auto parts found in the warehouse of the company did not have certificates, either, Pan said.
