You can request a refund if the 4S store does not provide the vehicle certificate, as the vehicle certificate is an important document proving whether the vehicle meets the required standards. The absence of the certificate indicates that the vehicle is not qualified, making it unsellable. Therefore, requesting a refund is reasonable and lawful. Below is relevant information about the vehicle pickup process for consumers: 1. Pay attention to checking the accompanying documents: These include the purchase invoice, vehicle certificate, vehicle conformity certificate, vehicle registration certificate, warranty certificate, etc. These documents are crucial, as some are necessary for later registration, so they must be complete; otherwise, new vehicle registration will be affected. 2. Pay attention to checking the vehicle's appearance: Try to have the vehicle parked outdoors in well-lit conditions to check if the paint is uniform and whether there are any scratches or wear on the paint surface. 3. Pay attention to checking the electrical equipment: New vehicles are generally not allowed for test drives, so after starting the engine, check its condition and test the functions of other electrical equipment, including lights, wipers, air conditioning, multimedia, windows, etc.

Where to Apply for the Inspection Exemption Label for Vehicles?

The electronic version of the motor vehicle inspection exemption label can be obtained through the Traffic Management 12123 app. Click on 'Apply for Inspection Exemption Label for Vehicles', submit the relevant vehicle information, and the electronic exemption label will be generated. Implementation Time of the Exemption Label: On June 20, 2020, the paper inspection labels for motor vehicles were abolished nationwide, and all paper inspection labels were replaced with electronic inspection labels. The electronic inspection label serves the same purpose as the paper label, so now there is no need to affix any paper labels inside or outside the vehicle. Usage Method: After successful application, you can download the electronic label to your phone in advance when needed, or print it out directly and affix it to the car window or place it in a readily accessible location inside the car. Of course, you can also directly present it offline through the Traffic Management 12123 mobile app.

Will not driving a car frequently have any impact on the car?

Leaving a car unused for a long time can cause the following damages: Oil seal aging: If a car is left unused for an extended period, the oil seal around the contact points will experience uneven pressure distribution. The direction with greater pressure will cause more deformation in the oil seal. The longer the car remains idle, the harder it is for the deformation to recover, eventually leading to permanent deformation of the oil seal, which can easily result in oil leaks. Battery premature failure: The car battery charges while the vehicle is in motion. If the car is left unused for a month, the battery may be damaged and could lose all its charge within that time. For older vehicles, the battery might die within 2-3 weeks. More seriously, prolonged self-discharge of the battery can lead to the formation of sulfides on the electrode plates, affecting the battery's ability to recharge and ultimately causing it to fail prematurely. Tire deformation: When a car is parked, the weight is borne by the parts of the four tires in contact with the ground, causing these contact areas to compress and deform. The longer the car remains stationary, the harder it is for the deformed areas to recover. This changes the weight distribution around the tires, resulting in uneven rolling radii and unbalanced tires. Once the car is driven at high speeds, this can cause body vibrations, accelerate tire wear, and even pose safety risks.

Can You Drive on the Highway with a Tire Pressure of 200?

Tire pressure of 200 is not suitable for highway driving. The standard tire pressure ranges from 2.4 to 2.5 bar; reinforced tires require 2.8 to 2.9 bar; the maximum pressure should not exceed 3.5 bar. Hazards of Low Tire Pressure: Increased friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; causes the steering wheel to feel heavy and prone to deviation, among other factors detrimental to driving safety; increases movement in various parts of the tire, resulting in abnormal heat due to excessive rolling; reduces the functionality of the cords and rubber, leading to delamination or cord breakage, and excessive friction with the rim causing damage to the tire bead area and abnormal wear. Hazards of High Tire Pressure: Reduces tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; accelerates wear on the central tread pattern of the tire, shortening its lifespan; increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components.

What Types of Car Insurance Should You Buy?

Car insurance mainly includes two types: compulsory traffic insurance and commercial insurance. Compulsory traffic insurance is mandatory by the state, while commercial insurance is optional for car owners. Commercial insurance includes liability insurance, third-party insurance, water damage insurance, and theft insurance. Introduction to Compulsory Traffic Insurance: The full name of compulsory traffic insurance is 'Compulsory Traffic Accident Liability Insurance for Motor Vehicles.' It is a mandatory liability insurance where the insurance company compensates for personal injuries, deaths, or property losses (excluding the vehicle's occupants and the insured) caused by road traffic accidents involving the insured vehicle, within the liability limits. Necessity of Compulsory Traffic Insurance: Compulsory traffic insurance ensures that victims of motor vehicle road traffic accidents receive compensation and promotes road traffic safety. It provides timely and basic protection for victims of traffic accidents.

What Type of Air to Use for Defogging Car Windows in Winter Rainy Days?

When driving in winter rainy days, use cold air to defog the windows. Principle of Cold Air Defogging: The most common method to deal with fogged windshields while driving in the rain is to turn on the air conditioner and direct the airflow to the front windshield. The cold air quickly disperses the fog on the glass, providing fast and direct results. This happens because the cold air creates a "cold air film" on the glass surface, preventing carbon dioxide from condensing on the glass, thus achieving the defogging effect. Why Not Use Hot Air in Winter: Hot air can also defog, but if used to defog the front windshield on a rainy day, it can actually worsen the fogging. Right after turning on the hot air, the front windshield may immediately become like "frosted glass." Therefore, if you are driving and the windows fog up due to rain, you should not use hot air for defogging.
