Are Cars Afraid of Getting Wet in the Rain?

Cars are not afraid of getting wet in the rain. The only part that might potentially get damaged from rain exposure is the car paint. Although current environmental pollution is quite severe, and rainwater contains some acidic substances that can cause certain damage to the car paint, this level of damage is completely negligible. Here are some relevant details: 1. Cars are not that fragile or delicate. A car is a machine, not a piece of paper that gets soaked by rain. On rainy days, there are many cars coming and going on the roads, and cars without garages are parked outdoors without any getting ruined by the rain. 2. A car is essentially a consumable item, bought to serve people. Before leaving the factory, cars undergo similar rain tests to prevent the paint from being corroded by water. 3. In some heavily polluted areas, the air contains a lot of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and dust particles, which rise to the clouds and condense into acid rain that falls on the car body. Prolonged exposure to rain without timely cleaning can corrode the car's paint surface. Car paint corroded by acid rain will age, lose its luster, or even crack, so it's advisable to rinse the car body after rain exposure. If the car is parked outdoors, buying a car cover can help block rain, as well as protect against dust and sun, providing good protection for the car.
