I distinctly recall a recent video from Serpentza showing swathes of BYD electric cars "recalled" or "abandoned", don't remember which, mostly due to battery concerns. Can't look it up right now
BYD recalled 53k cars in 2022. The pictures you're talking about of abandoned EVs in China are mostly from ride-sharing companies that went bankrupt in the mid-2010s (after purchasing the cars with generous subsidies that ended in 2019).
