It is harmful for a car to be exposed to rain for a long time. The hazards of prolonged exposure to rain include: 1. Bacterial growth: The air humidity is high after rain, and the interior of the car is usually damp, which can easily breed bacteria and affect human health. 2. Potential accidents: After being exposed to rain, mud can accumulate in the wheel cavities and undercarriage areas, allowing moisture to hide inside the chassis, leading to rust. In severe cases, the wheel cavities may even loosen or perforate, which can cause safety hazards. The undercarriage, especially the brakes, may experience reduced braking force due to moisture, resulting in delayed brake response. This can affect the car's performance and even lead to safety accidents.
