Does Parking on a Slope Damage the Car?
1 Answers
Long-term parking on a slope can affect the handbrake system and suspension, and may also lead to rolling or scraping accidents. Parking precautions: 1. Do not use the handbrake: Avoid using the handbrake for extended parking periods. Continuous tension on the steel cable can cause irreversible plastic deformation, accelerate aging, and reduce its service life. Especially when parking on an inclined slope, a loose or broken cable may cause the car to slide down the slope, which is dangerous. When parking, ensure that the handbrake components are not under tension. 2. Using the handbrake: For short-term parking at workplaces in the morning or evening, the handbrake system can be used. Try to park on flat ground where the car is not subjected to external forces, then engage the handbrake.
