How Long Does a Vehicle Have to Sit to Be Considered a Stock Car?

[Kai]

There is no defined time frame or definition for a stock car. Here are the specific details about stock cars: 1. After leaving the factory, various fluids, electronic components, batteries, rubber seals, and tires in a new car can easily suffer from moisture damage and aging if they sit for a long time without periodic inspection and maintenance. 2. Only a very few dealerships implement periodic inspection and maintenance measures. The cost is actually not high, but it consumes manpower and time. Some 4S stores even park new cars in open-air garages, exposing them directly to sun, wind, and rain. 3. For stock cars that have been parked for too long, without proper warehouse management, the aging of electronic components and rubber products is almost impossible to detect without professional testing equipment. Many vehicles that have been in stock for too long also experience issues like lack of oil or dead batteries.
