New car annual inspections can be divided into two situations: one is eligible for a 6-year exemption, and the other requires on-site testing. A new car can be exempt from annual inspections for 6 years if it meets the following conditions: 1. The vehicle is non-commercial; 2. The vehicle's rated seating capacity is 6 or fewer people. Starting from November 20, 2020, small and mini passenger vehicles with 7 to 9 seats (excluding minivans) are included in the exemption scope; 3. The vehicle type specified on the driving license is a car (mini, small, medium, large), mini ordinary passenger vehicle, mini off-road passenger vehicle, small ordinary passenger vehicle, small off-road passenger vehicle, or small special-purpose passenger vehicle; 4. The vehicle was registered within 4 years from the date of manufacture; 5. It meets all the above conditions and has not been involved in any fatal traffic accidents during the exemption period.

What are the reasons for the poor resale value of the Ford Escort?

The poor resale value of the Ford Escort is primarily influenced by the model and market retention rate. Firstly, the pricing of the Ford Escort is very low, mainly because it integrates the chassis of the Ford Focus, the engine and transmission of the Ford Fiesta—three major components from Changan Ford—making it essentially a product of resource integration. Relevant data are as follows: 1. Resale Value: The resale rates of the Ford Escort in the used car market for the first five years are 67.04%, 58.74%, 51.02%, 45.52%, and 41.06%, respectively. 2. Statistics: According to statistics from the China Automobile Dealers Association, the average resale rate for domestic used cars in the first year is 70%, and 60% in the third year. The Ford Escort's resale rates for the first three years are all below the average standard, indicating that the Ford Escort is indeed a model with very poor resale value.

What is the Difference Between Rust from Flood-Damaged Cars and Natural Rust?

Flood-damaged cars are mostly affected by turbid rainwater, which contains harmful gases, impurities, and acidic substances from the atmosphere, accelerating vehicle corrosion. The entry of turbid rainwater into the car causes severe corrosion. In contrast, natural rust develops more slowly. Below is relevant information: 1. Flood-damaged cars: As the name suggests, these are vehicles that have been submerged in water. They are categorized into three types based on the severity of damage: the first type involves water depth exceeding the wheels and entering the interior; the second type involves water depth surpassing the dashboard; the third type involves water rising above the car roof. 2. Waterlogged cars: This refers to vehicles driven on low-lying, waterlogged roads, passing through water. This usually occurs during rainy weather in low-lying areas with inadequate drainage systems leading to water accumulation on the road.

Which button turns on the Bluetooth in the car?

Car Bluetooth is referred to as Car-Bluetooth-Phone, abbreviated as CBP. Apart from the answer and end call buttons on the multifunction steering wheel, there is no dedicated button for turning it on or off. All activation, deactivation, and connection operations must be performed through the central control screen. Relevant information about car Bluetooth is as follows: 1. Function: After successfully matching the Bluetooth function, you can use your phone to play audio files or answer calls, which is very convenient. While driving, it ensures road safety. Once the car system and Bluetooth system are connected, you can make calls directly through the car system, using it hands-free. 2. Automatic connection: Once your phone and car system are connected, they will automatically reconnect the next time you use them, provided that your phone's Bluetooth is turned on. This eliminates the need for frequent connections, saving time and adding convenience to vehicle use. However, when using Bluetooth calls, it's important to pay attention to privacy.

What Should the Car Tire Pressure Be?

The standard tire pressure for passenger cars is normally within the range of 2.3-2.5 bar, with a maximum not exceeding 3.0 bar and a minimum not below 2.1 bar. According to the international GBT2978-2008 standard, the recommended tire pressures for different types of tires are as follows: Standard tires: 2.4-2.5 bar; Reinforced tires: 2.8-2.9 bar; The maximum pressure should not exceed 3.5 bar. Winter tire pressure values: In winter, the tire pressure should be based on the standard tire pressure of the car, with an appropriate increase of about 0.2 bar. Summer tire pressure values: Generally, the lower limit of the standard tire pressure is sufficient. For example, the lower limit for standard tires is 2.4 bar. If the car is often parked outdoors, the tire pressure can generally be about 0.1 bar lower than the standard to avoid tire blowouts due to high temperatures.

Is a 10-Day Car Loan Overdue Serious?

The adverse consequences of a car loan overdue mainly include: 1. Starting from the overdue date, penalty interest will be charged. When the customer repays after ten days, in addition to the principal and interest originally due, they will also need to pay over ten days of overdue penalty interest. 2. The overdue situation will be reported by the handling bank (auto consumer finance company) to the central bank's credit reporting system, leaving a negative record in the customer's personal credit report, thereby damaging their personal credit. It's important to note that credit records are difficult to repair. After repayment, the overdue record generally remains for at least five years before it may be deleted by the system (manual intervention cannot force deletion). 3. Due to the damage to the customer's credit, and since banks (loan institutions, platforms) usually review the customer's credit (mainly checking the credit records of the past two years) when applying for credit cards or loans, the customer's future credit applications will also be hindered. It will be difficult to obtain a credit card or loan in the short term.
