It is not good to leave a car exposed to the sun, as it can lead to various problems. Here are the hazards of prolonged sun exposure for cars: Engine prone to overheating: In high-temperature environments, the cooling system of a car's engine has a smaller heat dissipation temperature difference and reduced cooling capacity, making the engine prone to overheating. Battery damage: When the battery temperature is high, the electrodes may oxidize due to insulation layer aging, especially the negative electrode, which can produce white oxide deposits on the terminals, leading to unstable battery voltage. Paint aging: Car paint exposed to intense sunlight is prone to fading or reduced gloss, and may develop cracks. Interior aging: Under high-temperature exposure, the interior temperature becomes extremely high, causing the interior materials to age more quickly.
