Which tag should be used specifically to document a product quality deficiency impacting a part?

• A. DD-1574 Serviceable Tag - Material
• B. DD-1577-2 Unserviceable(Repairable) Tag
• C. CG-1577-B Product Quality Deficiency Report Tag
• D. PQDR Tag

Answer: (C)

When a part shows a product quality deficiency that could affect performance, safety, or reliability, you need a tag that triggers the formal quality investigation and disposition process. The CG-1577-B Product Quality Deficiency Report Tag is specifically designed for this purpose. Attaching this tag to the defective item flags the issue as a PQDR, initiating the appropriate investigation with the supplier, documenting the deficiency, and driving corrective actions. The other tags serve different endpoints—serviceable items, or unserviceable/repairable items—and do not initiate the PQDR process. So the correct tag for documenting a product quality deficiency impacting a part is the CG-1577-B Product Quality Deficiency Report Tag.
