What Are the Hazards of Outdoor Parking?
1 Answers
The hazards of outdoor parking are as follows: Damage to the car's paint: If the car is parked in an open parking lot or a residential parking space, prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause the paint to fade, oxidize, and even crack. Car paint contains a large amount of resin, metal, and other materials, which make it prone to oxidation. Windblown sand and stones can damage the car's glass: If a car is parked outdoors for a long time and encounters windy and sandy weather, the dust and sand particles in the wind can cover the vehicle, causing scratches to the paint and glass. These fine scratches can create diffuse reflections of external light sources on the glass during nighttime driving, severely affecting driving safety. Sand and dust entering the vehicle's interior can increase the failure rate of machinery, leading to higher maintenance costs. Risk of car fire: Some drivers like to place mineral water bottles and lighters in front of the car's windshield. Under the scorching sun, this can easily cause fires and explosions. Engine oil deterioration: If a car is parked outdoors for a long time without use, the engine oil inside will gradually deteriorate and oxidize, leading to issues with lubrication and wear. When the car is started again, it can result in friction or semi-dry friction, accelerating the wear of parts. Additionally, the resistance during startup will increase, making it harder to start the car.
