Under-invoicing leads to lower insurance coverage. The impacts of under-invoicing include: Vehicle issues: The purchase amount on the invoice does not match the actual payment (the invoice reflects the purchase amount). If vehicle problems arise, the car seller has the right to compensate based on the invoice amount, meaning the buyer pays the full price but doesn't receive full benefits. Reduced coverage amount: With an under-invoiced purchase, the overall coverage amount for vehicle damage insurance will also decrease. In the event of a major accident resulting in a total loss, the insurance company will use the invoice amount as the compensation standard. Additionally, in cases of theft, if the owner has purchased theft insurance, the compensation will also be calculated based on the invoice amount.

What is the function of automotive urea?

Automotive urea is a liquid used in SCR technology to reduce nitrogen oxide pollution in diesel vehicle exhaust. It is composed of 32.5% high-purity urea and 67.5% deionized water. Automotive urea is a solution adopted by engine manufacturers using SCR technology to meet the exhaust emission standards set by environmental protection authorities. If automotive urea is not used, the vehicle will emit excessive exhaust gases. When the SCR system detects nitrogen oxides in the exhaust pipe, the urea tank automatically sprays diesel exhaust fluid (DEF). The DEF and nitrogen oxides undergo a redox reaction in the SCR catalytic converter, producing harmless nitrogen gas and water vapor. Additionally, engine performance will deteriorate, and vehicle power will decrease, as automotive urea helps optimize engine performance and fuel consumption.
