What are the effects of not straightening the front wheels of a new car for ten days?
1 Answers
Leaving the wheels unstraightened for a long time can cause damage to the steering system, harm the suspension system, and accelerate wheel wear. The details are as follows: 1. Damage to the steering system: 1. Aging of the steering linkage: The steering linkage cannot return to its original position and remains under force, which can accelerate aging over time. 2. Aging of the power steering pump: The hydraulic resistance system's power steering pump pushes oil but fails to return it, creating negative pressure that accelerates the aging of the pump. 2. Damage to the suspension system: The suspension system will tilt towards the direction the vehicle is turned, causing the soft-supporting rubber pads and rubber sleeves to remain under force and wear out faster. 3. Accelerated tire wear: This will cause greater force on the sidewalls of the tires, accelerating their wear and thus compromising driving safety. Additional information: This phenomenon is most common in parallel parking. Because this maneuver is difficult, many people barely manage to park and then exit the car without straightening the wheels. A few instances may not have an impact, but prolonged neglect will increase damage to the car.
