Can Large Hail Damage a Car?
1 Answers
Hail falling from high altitudes carries significant kinetic energy and can be quite destructive. Even ordinary hail can damage a car, causing harm to the windshield and paintwork, though the extent of damage depends on the size of the hailstones. Solutions for hail damage to a car include: 1. The car owner should file a claim with their insurance company. 2. Take the car to an auto repair shop or a 4S store for repairs. DIY repair methods for car owners: - Pull-out method: Insert a hot-melt glue stick from the back of the glue gun, plug the glue gun into a power socket, set it to a higher temperature, and preheat for 3 to 5 minutes until the glue is completely melted. Pull the trigger of the glue gun to apply the melted glue onto a traction pad, then pull outward. - Pry-up method: Remove the interior panel of the car door, unfasten the door panel clips, disconnect the wiring harness on the door panel, and use a tool to pry inside the door.
