The Buick Excelle does not come with a dash cam. Below is a related introduction to the Buick Excelle: 1. Exterior: The new Excelle adheres to Buick's "dynamic and fluid" design language, drawing inspiration from the classic elements of the Riviera concept car. It features a new wing-shaped chrome grille, winged LED automatic sensing headlights, winged LED taillights, dual-peak body character lines, large-view exterior rearview mirrors, and 16-inch dual five-spoke luxury two-tone aluminum alloy wheels. 2. Interior: The new Excelle's cabin continues Buick's 360-degree wraparound integrated design, complemented by high-touch interior materials and Buick's patented Quiet-Tuning noise reduction technology. It includes a three-spoke multifunction steering wheel, ice-blue sport instrument panel, fully automatic air conditioning system, one-touch start function, rear air conditioning vents, and a flexible 400L luggage compartment.

I've been driving a Buick Excelle for a while now. When I bought the car, the salesperson clearly stated that the factory configuration didn't include a dash cam, so I installed a third-party device myself. It feels quite common, as many car owners do the same. Installation is simple—just power it through the cigarette lighter socket and get a high-definition camera. I opted for a model with GPS functionality, which is really useful for recording road conditions in the city. Last time, there was a minor scratch, and the footage helped resolve the dispute smoothly, saving me from unnecessary expenses. I recommend installing one early for peace of mind—buy a cost-effective brand online, like Xiaoyi or 360, as the installation process is easy and hassle-free. Remember to check the memory card capacity and back up recordings regularly, just in case. Overall, it’s a big help for driving safety and more cost-effective than waiting for the factory to offer it at a premium. The Buick itself is a great car, but the dash cam is something you’ll have to handle yourself.

From an automotive technology perspective, the Buick Excelle standard version typically does not come with a built-in dashcam, which is due to cost control and owner customization considerations. I can explain how to install one afterward: easily add a device using in-car interfaces like OBD or USB, preferably choosing a 1080P HD camera with night vision to enhance recording quality in rainy or nighttime conditions. During installation, pay attention to wiring to avoid routing near airbag areas; DIY installation isn't difficult, with plenty of online tutorials available—just suction cup mounting and plug-in testing. Post-installation benefits include recording accident evidence to prevent fraud and reviewing driving routes to optimize habits. It's advisable to choose brands with long warranty periods for durability; even if the factory doesn't include it, it doesn't mean the feature is missing. Keeping the device clean and updating data regularly makes it highly practical.

Can I drive without carrying my physical driver's license if I have an electronic version?

Electronic driver's licenses are only applicable in certain regions, and currently, they are not supported on highways. Although portable query terminals have been adopted by traffic police, not all local traffic police are using them. Therefore, in some areas, even if other valid documents are provided, driver's license information may not be retrievable. Additional Information: The role of electronic driver's licenses: Electronic driver's licenses cannot completely replace physical driver's licenses. They can only serve as an auxiliary tool for query purposes. For handling various traffic violations and point deductions, a physical driver's license is still required. Electronic driver's licenses can only be used to assist in queries during traffic police vehicle inspections. Regulations: According to China's "Road Traffic Safety Law," drivers must carry their driver's license while driving. Failure to do so may result in a 1-point penalty and even the impoundment of the vehicle. However, with an "electronic driver's license," carrying the original is not mandatory, and presenting the electronic version will not incur penalties.

Can a dented car side skirt be pulled out?

It is possible to pull out a dented car side skirt. The dent can be removed using a metalworking machine. The process involves pulling, shaping, sanding, applying putty, smoothing, spraying texture coating, and painting. The key factors are the location and severity of the dent. Minor dents can be fixed by purchasing spray paint and doing it yourself, with dozens of options available online. Additional information: For more severe dents, it is recommended to visit a professional auto repair shop or 4S store for the best treatment. Internal repairs should be prioritized over direct cutting of the side skirt whenever possible. Impact: Metalworking, in simple terms, involves metal correction, applying putty, painting, and surface treatment. Theoretically, it does not harm the car, as the areas subjected to metalworking are usually just cover parts. However, there will still be some impact on the metalworked areas. After all, whether it's steel or iron, once the structure is deformed and then repaired, its strength will not be the same as before.

Passat displays 'key not found'?

Passat displays 'key not found' for the following reasons: When there is electromagnetic interference with similar frequencies nearby, the vehicle's antenna cannot emit normal electromagnetic waves and fails to function properly. Therefore, even if the key is inside the car, it cannot be detected. The system will return to normal once the vehicle leaves the interference area. Working principle of keyless start: 1. There are multiple antennas inside the Passat that emit radio waves to search for the key. 2. When a valid key is detected, pressing the start button will allow the engine to start. If no valid key is found, starting will be prohibited and the system will display 'key not detected'.
