The consequences of not maintaining a vehicle are: 1. The car paint is prone to damage, especially during summer when hot weather and UV rays can corrode the paint, making the car look aged; 2. If the air filter is not replaced on time, it will lose its ability to filter air impurities, failing to protect internal engine components such as pistons, intake and exhaust valves, piston rings, and cylinders; 3. Tires will age faster, and in severe cases, may lead to deflation or become unusable; 4. Engine oil will oxidize severely, reducing its lubrication effectiveness and failing to protect the engine. The acidic substances in the oil can also corrode engine parts, affecting the engine's normal operation.

Can Winter Tires Be Used on Highways?

Winter tires can be used on highways. The tread of winter tires that comes into contact with the road surface uses a special silicon-infused compound to ensure the tire remains particularly soft even at extremely low temperatures, thereby providing excellent grip on ice. The tread pattern typically employs a cross-zigzag siping technology to enhance braking performance on snow and ice, reduce braking distance, and deliver ideal traction. Tire maintenance methods include: 1. Regularly clean stones from the tire tread grooves; 2. Minimize exposure to direct sunlight; 3. Promptly check tire pressure; 4.
