What are the hazards of not shifting to P gear when turning off the car?
1 Answers
It will affect the lifespan of the transmission. Below is relevant information about the P gear: 1. Principle: Mechanically locks the output shaft part of the transmission to secure the car and prevent it from moving. 2. Vehicle parking sequence: After the car has come to a complete stop on a flat road, shift the gear from D gear to P gear, then engage the handbrake to complete parking, and finally turn off the engine. 3. Safe parking: If you brake directly without shifting to P gear, the vehicle may lose its necessary braking capability. The safest and most secure practice is to shift into P gear after the vehicle has come to a complete stop.
