German OEMs mainly require the VDA Field failure analysis process – but they have their additional requirements that suppliers must follow.
Warranty management is an IATF16949 requirement (10.2.5) – but in reality it should be the real interest of all automotive suppliers as well.
Evaluation of your Field failure analysis process by conducting an audit based on the specific requirements.
A special audit has been defined by VDA to assess the Field failure analysis process.
