What are the reasons for a car failing to start?
1 Answers
Reasons for a car failing to start: 1. The vehicle is out of fuel, with the fuel gauge showing below the red line, causing failure to start; 2. The car battery is dead, due to reasons like leaving headlights on for a long time or the battery reaching the end of its lifespan. It is generally recommended to replace the battery every 2 years; 3. For automatic transmission vehicles, the gear must be in P (Park) or N (Neutral) when starting. If it's in R (Reverse) or D (Drive), the car will not start; 4. The owner added water or low-quality antifreeze to the car, causing the entire cooling system to freeze in extremely cold winter conditions. This can lead to the engine cracking, the water pump failing to operate, resulting in failure to start and damage to other engine components.
