论文对丰田汽车公司在中美两国召回事件中沟通策略作了分析和比较,认为丰田
汽车公司的全球化扩大经营理念操之过急,采用大幅降低生产成本和忽视产品质量问

这次全球范围内召回事件时处理产品质量危机事件的经验教训。在全球不同区域,既
要考虑危机事件所波及的广度和深度,还需要面对不同社会文化背景等诸多影响要
素。美国作为丰田汽车在全球市场上的老牌根据地,丰田汽车花费了大量人力物力和
财力来维持其在美国市场上的优良口碑和信誉,而面对新兴市场的中国,则是怠慢有
加,在对两国消费者沟通上采取了差异明显的策略,所引发的消费者反应也是截然不
同的。跨文化的沟通策略为企业面临跨国危机事件时的有效处理提供了理论依据和解
决方案。虽然在不同的国家、不同的地域,面对着不一样的消费者,但是保证企业产
品的质量则是防范危机发生的根本,这样消费者才会成为企业最忠实的客户,而企业
在消费者不断的肯定和放心下也才会日趋茁壮成长,形成双赢的局面。
企业运营必须严格把控好质量关,建立产品质量危机管理机制,通晓各国的产品
质量标准和相应的产品质量法律法规,熟悉各国风土人情和容易接受的危机处理方

第 1 章 绪论
1.1 研究背景和意义
在 2009 年的整个年度里“召回”这个词出镜率颇高,尤其是丰田汽车的召回门
事件最为引人注目。纵观丰田汽车的整个历史发展情形,首先是在上个世纪的六十、
七十年代里,丰田家族依靠着低廉的价格来获取市场的份额。紧接着在日本本土所积
累的 20 年来原始资本基础上,丰田汽车走向了提升质量的高速道路,通过不断提升
的质量技术水平丰田赢得了消费者称赞的口碑,产品质量获得了市场的极大认可,从
20 世纪末发展到如今,丰田汽车赢得了品牌价值的竞争,勇冠全球汽车市场,坐上
了全球汽车销量的第一名宝座。其产品的品质、销售价格、消费者满意度和市场口碑
通过了如此漫长时间的发展终于形成了极具竞争力的品牌。在这些众多光环的照耀下
却突然爆发的质量问题,让丰田汽车陷入了深渊之中,召回事件不但对丰田汽车本身
形成了巨大的影响力,而且对于全球整个汽车市场也影响颇大。在这突如其来的事件
中我们可以学习到,不管企业身在何方或者处于行业的任何地位,在做产品的质量时,
可谓是如履薄冰、慎之又慎。在任何发展阶段都不能有忽视的思想。无论目前拥有多
少荣耀和地位,都应该以消费者为核心。每时每刻倾听消费者的心声,解决消费者提
出的何种问题。否则一旦出现任何质量问题,就会对苦心建设的品牌带来巨大的冲击。
相较于丰田汽车,中国汽车市场可谓是初生牛犊,但是发展速度确实非常迅猛,
用户的产品使用回馈、新品质量的满意度都在逐步提升。虽然这些努力使得国产品牌
和国际品牌的差距在渐渐缩小,但是距离一流还有一定的距离。丰田汽车的历史发展
可以给我国车企带来很好的借鉴,尤其是这次的召回事件发生让我国车企的将来发展
警钟长鸣,中国车企的发展历程和丰田有相似之处,也是从最初的依靠价格低廉来参
与竞争,但是伴随着国际化的竞争趋势,价格竞争会越来越困难。要想最终获得胜利
就必须依靠产品的质量品质。品牌价值的比拼才是企业最终要面临的选择。丰田汽车
就是我国车企很好的借鉴榜样。汽车产品不同于其他静止类的产品,使用的时候是处
于高速行驶的运动状态,所以对于车主来说质量是最为重要的考虑方面,一旦发生故
障就很有可能造成不可挽回的损失。所以丰田召回事件就是一个很好的警示案例,值
得我们好好的研究分析。中国汽车市场的发展经历了十几年的里程,消费者还处在从
