Motor vehicles can undergo annual inspection up to 3 months in advance. According to Article 40 of Order No. 102 from the Ministry of Public Security of the People's Republic of China: The owner of a motor vehicle may apply for an inspection compliance mark at the vehicle management office of the registration location within three months before the expiration of the motor vehicle's inspection validity period. Annual inspection procedure: First, after submitting the inspection application, the vehicle must pass an on-site inspection. The vehicle is driven into an automatic inspection area where emissions, speed, lights, side slip, and chassis are sequentially checked against standards. Only when all items pass can the vehicle proceed. Next is the appearance inspection, verifying the accuracy of the vehicle's license plate, type, body color, engine number, VIN code, and frame number. Then, the body appearance is inspected, including details such as the bumper, engine compartment, rearview mirrors, lower mirrors, window glass, paint surface, engine operation status, and the interior of buses and wheels. Finally, the owner can obtain the inspection report and application form from the inspector. If all inspection items pass, the owner can proceed to pay the inspection fee and collect the vehicle license and compliance label. If any items fail, the owner must make repairs and participate in a re-inspection until all items pass before proceeding with the visa procedures.

What Does Brake Shoe Wear Mean?

Brake shoe wear refers to the condition where the brake shoes have reached the wear limit warning and need replacement, which could lead to brake failure. Below is an introduction to brake shoe wear: 1. Composition: Brake shoes generally consist of two parts: an iron backing plate and friction material. It is crucial not to wait until the friction material is completely worn out before replacing the shoes. For front brake shoes, the new thickness is 14 millimeters, while the replacement limit thickness is 7 millimeters, which includes over 3 millimeters of iron backing plate thickness and nearly 4 millimeters of friction material thickness. 2. Warning function: Some vehicles are equipped with a brake shoe wear warning feature. Once the wear limit is reached, the dashboard will alert the driver to replace the shoes. Shoes that have reached the usage limit must be replaced immediately, as continuing to use them, even for a short period, will reduce braking effectiveness and compromise driving safety.

What does braking performance mean?

Automotive braking performance refers to a vehicle's ability to forcibly decelerate or come to a complete stop while driving, or to maintain a certain speed when going downhill. Below is a relevant introduction to automotive braking performance: 1. Introduction: Automotive braking performance refers to a vehicle's ability to forcibly decelerate or come to a complete stop while driving, or to maintain a certain speed when going downhill. The braking process involves artificially increasing the vehicle's driving resistance, utilizing wheel brakes, the engine, or specialized auxiliary brakes. 2. Function: During braking, the interaction between the braked wheels (usually both front and rear wheels are braked) and the road surface generates a tangential reaction force opposite to the direction of travel (i.e., braking force), which has a decisive impact on the vehicle's braking performance. The maximum value of this force depends on the adhesion between the tires and the road surface.

Is Warranty for Repair or Replacement?

Warranty is neither for repair nor replacement. Warranty is the prerequisite for repair services. Below are relevant introductions about warranty: 1. Warranty period: It means the product's quality should meet standards and be guaranteed within a certain period, and won't be damaged due to reasons other than human factors, force majeure, or unpredictable factors. Warranty is the quality assurance of a product, which is a basic attribute that any product should have. It cannot be assumed that warranty means providing lifetime repair services. 2. Repair period: It provides after-sales repair service guarantees, with both free and paid options. Damage caused by human factors and situations not covered by the manufacturer's standard service policy (such as water damage) require additional payment, while those within the standard service policy are free.

What is the Function of Intermediate Paint?

The functions of intermediate paint include the following aspects: Increasing the thickness of the paint film: Enhancing the durability and service life of the paint coating. Good economic efficiency: Using a corrosion protection system consisting of primer, intermediate paint, and topcoat offers better economic efficiency compared to using only primer and topcoat for the same service life, meaning lower costs. Improving adhesion and bonding strength between primer and topcoat: Acting as a connecting paint, it enhances the adhesion and bonding strength between primer and topcoat, especially when used with epoxy zinc-rich primers containing high zinc content. Enhancing surface decoration: Using intermediate paint can make the surface paint film fuller, brighter, and smoother. Good sealing performance of epoxy micaceous iron oxide intermediate paint: Particularly suitable for corrosion protection systems in humid environments.

Is the Warranty Still Valid for a Car Involved in an Accident During the Warranty Period?

For a car involved in an accident during the warranty period, the warranty may still apply, but the process can be more complicated. It requires proving that the fault is due to a quality issue rather than human error. Below are some relevant details about the warranty: 1. Overview: The vehicle warranty covers free replacement of various components if they are confirmed to be defective rather than damaged due to human actions, such as issues with the speedometer or air conditioning. 2. Requirements: Free repairs are available if the issue occurs within the warranty period or within the specified mileage. The powertrain warranty covers the engine and transmission. If these components have quality issues, they will be covered under warranty, provided that regular maintenance is performed at authorized locations (usually 4S shops) as specified in the maintenance manual. In the above cases, free replacements are provided if the issue is confirmed to be a quality problem. However, the manufacturer does not provide warranty coverage for faults caused by improper operation or human error.
