It is considered a minor accident. However, if there is cutting of the frame or structural components, then it would be classified as a major accident. Below is relevant information about automotive suspension: 1. Definition: The suspension system refers to all the force-transmitting connection devices between the vehicle's frame and the axle or wheels. Its function is to transmit forces and torques acting between the wheels and the frame, as well as to cushion the impact from uneven road surfaces transmitted to the frame or body, and to dampen the resulting vibrations, ensuring smooth driving. 2. Non-independent Suspension System: The structural characteristic of a non-independent suspension system is that both wheels are connected by a solid axle, and the wheels along with the axle are suspended under the frame or body via an elastic suspension system. Non-independent suspension systems have the advantages of simple structure, low cost, high strength, easy maintenance, and minimal changes in front wheel alignment during driving. However, due to their poor comfort and handling stability, they are rarely used in modern passenger cars and are mostly found in trucks and buses.

What car is the 'keys' on the steering wheel?

Steering wheel 'keys' is not a car model, but a brand of modified racing steering wheels, fully named keyis-racing. Here is an introduction about keyis-racing: 1. The keyis-racing brand primarily produces professional quick-release racing steering wheels, providing accessories for professional racing cars. The quick-release steering wheel can be freely disassembled and installed. When the car is not in use, the steering wheel can be removed and hung on the position of the front sun visor. When racing is needed, it can be immediately installed on the steering wheel base for use, which is quite convenient. 2. The size of quick-release racing steering wheels is mostly quite small, which is beneficial for the driver's operation during extreme driving and increases the interior space to a certain extent. Moreover, quick-release racing steering wheels are generally universal. As long as a suitable base is installed, the quick-release steering wheel can be fitted into any vehicle.

How High Should the Seat Be Adjusted?

Car seat height adjustment should be determined based on the driver's body size. Different body sizes require different seat height adjustments. The specific steps for adjusting the seat are as follows: 1. Adjust the seat's fore-and-aft distance: Set the distance between the seat and the steering wheel to an appropriate value, with knees slightly bent, allowing easy and comfortable operation of the accelerator and brake pedals. 2. Adjust the seat height: Adjust the seat height so that the driver's eyes can level with the middle-upper position of the windshield. It should not be too low to prevent the steering wheel and dashboard from obstructing the view. 3. Adjust the seat headrest: The head should be as close as possible to the headrest, with the contact point slightly above the driver's eye level. 4. Adjust the lumbar support position: The lumbar support should not be too high or too low but adjusted to a position that is comfortable for the driver.

How Many Bottles of Fuel Additive Can Be Added Per Tank of Gas?

Currently, common household vehicles require 1-2 bottles of fuel additive per tank of gas, but excessive use should be avoided. The maximum recommended amount per tank is no more than 5 bottles (60ml per bottle). The exact number of bottles to add should be determined based on the specific conditions of the vehicle, for the following reasons: 1. Generally, household vehicles require 1-2 bottles of fuel additive per tank. Common small household cars typically have fuel tanks ranging from 35-45 liters, mid-size cars around 55-75 liters, and large or luxury cars around 75-100 liters. 2. The standard specification for fuel additives is 60ml per bottle, with 60ml typically suitable for 30-60 liters of gasoline. Additionally, for car owners who habitually fill only two-thirds or half a tank, one bottle of fuel additive should still be added for optimal results.

Solutions for Car Accelerator Pedal Vibration?

Car accelerator pedal vibration is a normal phenomenon, but if the shaking is too severe, it is necessary to go to a 4S shop for inspection and repair. The reasons for severe car accelerator pedal vibration are as follows: 1. Damage to the engine mount rubber. The engine mount rubber of a car can satisfy the flexible connection between the engine and the car body, greatly reducing the vibration transmitted to the car body. It is precisely because of this flexible connection that the engine mount rubber continuously bears the rotational torque generated by the engine and the tension and pressure generated by the engine on bumpy roads. As the car ages, the engine mount rubber will become damaged, leading to oil leakage and fractures, significantly reducing its vibration damping effect. 2. Clutch slippage. In manual transmission cars and automatic transmission dual-clutch cars, the power transmission and disconnection from the engine to the gearbox are completed through friction plate clutches. Severe wear of the clutch or broken damping springs can also cause the accelerator pedal to vibrate.
