Does Leaving a Car Unused for a Long Time Affect It?
1 Answers
Leaving a car unused for a long time does have an impact. Here are the effects of prolonged inactivity on a car: 1. Impact on tires: Normally, the part of the tire in contact with the ground will flatten slightly. When the car is in use, this contact area constantly changes, ensuring even wear. If the car remains unused for a long time, noticeable deformation can occur, affecting the tire's lifespan. 2. Impact on the battery: Even when the car is not in use, many systems still rely on the battery. If the car is not used for an extended period, the battery cannot be recharged, which may eventually lead to difficulty starting the car. Moreover, prolonged battery discharge can also damage the battery.
