Will the 4S shop repair a newly bought car if it gets scratched?

If the car owner accidentally scratches the vehicle, the 4S shop will not provide free repairs, and the owner will need to pay for the repair costs as usual. Even if the 4S shop offers a free first maintenance service for the vehicle, the first maintenance only involves checking whether the vehicle's functions are normal and changing the oil once, and does not include paint touch-ups or repairs. The solutions for a newly scratched car include: repairing it by sanding with sandpaper—clean and dry the scratched area, then gently rub the scratched area with sandpaper dipped in water; using chilled cola to repair—pour a small amount of cola onto a cloth and continuously wipe the scratched area; using essential balm to repair—pour a small amount of essential balm onto a cloth and continuously wipe the scratched area; using toothpaste to repair—clean the scratch with a cloth, squeeze toothpaste onto a damp towel or soft sponge, and wipe the scratch up and down; using nail polish to repair—applying a layer of nail polish to the scratch can prevent it from rusting. If the 4S shop staff's negligence causes the vehicle to be scratched inside the shop or during transportation, the car owner has the right to request the 4S shop to repair it for free. If the repair does not meet the owner's standards, the owner has the right to refuse to take delivery of the car.

What Causes Abnormal Noises While Driving a Car?

Abnormal noises while driving a car can stem from tire noises, engine noises, or body noises. These abnormal sounds are irregular phenomena and indicate existing or potential car malfunctions. Any abnormal noise suggests an abnormal operation or damage in a certain component, so immediate inspection is necessary upon detection. Causes of abnormal noises: Tire noises: A dull "thudding" sound usually indicates tire tread deformation, bulging, severe wear, or insufficient tire pressure; a "tapping" sound may suggest small stones stuck in the tread; if metallic clashing sounds come from inside the tire while driving, it could be due to damaged shock absorbers or bearings, requiring prompt repair at a service center. Engine noises: These are more serious issues, indicating problems with engine components or the moving mechanism. Repairs are complex and costly. Professional technicians should diagnose and address engine noises. Body noises: These may result from insufficient body rigidity, causing deformation during driving, leading to friction or shaking between doors and frames, or loose welds causing metal friction. Some cars have significant wind noise, partly due to their design. Poorly fixed body components can also cause noises, often resolved by tightening screws.

What Causes the Malfunction Light to Stay On in an EFI Motorcycle?

When the malfunction light stays on in an EFI motorcycle, it indicates an issue with the electronic control system, often related to the electrical circuit. You can ride the motorcycle to a repair shop to have it checked. The fault code should be retrieved, and based on this code, the cause can be identified. If there is a fault, it should be repaired accordingly; if not, the light can simply be turned off. Common warning lights in EFI motorcycles and their meanings: Low Coolant Level Warning Light: Indicates that the coolant level is too low and needs to be refilled. TCS Control System Warning Light: Indicates a fault in the traction control system. Transmission Overheat Warning Light: Indicates that the transmission temperature is too high and needs cooling. Drivetrain Warning Light: Indicates a fault in the drivetrain. Types of EFI Motorcycles: Closed-Loop System: The functionality and operation of closed-loop EFI motorcycles are essentially the same as those in cars. Closed-loop EFI motorcycles can adjust the fuel injection amount based on the oxygen content in the exhaust and can also change the intake pressure according to external atmospheric pressure changes. Most domestically produced EFI motorcycles on the market are open-loop systems. Open-Loop System: Open-loop EFI motorcycles have largely been phased out due to their inability to meet high environmental standards.

What does 'ramp' mean?

Ramp, also known as an approach, refers to the section of road that connects the upper and lower roads of an overpass or elevated road, as well as the section that connects the highway with adjacent auxiliary roads. Below are definitions of various types of ramps: 1. Entrance and exit ramps: These are auxiliary connecting sections for entering and exiting the main road, also known as approaches. In engineering terms, they typically refer to a short section that provides vehicles with access to the main road and adjacent auxiliary roads, or other main roads via bridges/slopes/connecting roads, as well as collector-distributor roads. They are a major component of road interchange construction. 2. Up and down ramps: These are auxiliary connecting slopes for entering and exiting elevated roads, moving upwards or downwards, usually referred to as 'interchange ramps.' Note: The above two types (items 1 and 2) often incorporate the design of collector-distributor roads. 3. Direct ramp: Places the left-turn lane on the left side. 4. Indirect ramp: Places the left-turn lane on the right side, using a loop to connect with other highways. 5. Semi-direct ramp: Similar to an indirect ramp but does not use a loop; instead, it uses a longer, more undulating elevated road as the connecting ramp.

What is a Power Liftgate with Automatic Operation?

Power Liftgate with Automatic Operation allows for hands-free closing of the trunk lid, requiring the optional automatic control feature for the liftgate. The contactless liftgate opening system consists of an upper sensor and a lower sensor. The upper sensor is flat-shaped and detects the lower leg movement, while the lower circular sensor identifies toe movements. Both sensors are connected to an electronic analysis unit that continuously measures capacitance. By comparing the temporal patterns of measured capacitance changes, specific movement sequences can be recognized, enabling the system to identify intentional foot gestures (approaching and retreating from the bumper). The control unit for the power liftgate system manages and monitors the liftgate operation. With a button press, it automatically opens or closes the trunk lid. This automatic operation can only be activated when the vehicle is stationary, not during driving mode. The power liftgate control unit performs these functions: analyzing CAN messages and functional requests; converting CAN signals to standardized positions; controlling the liftgate actuator drive; regulating and monitoring the actuator's motor speed, position, and current consumption. The trunk lid can be automatically opened or closed by pressing any of the liftgate buttons. After authorization through the Keyless Entry and Start System, the junction box electronics release the trunk lock mechanism, followed by liftgate latch control.
