Tire tread wear, foreign objects in the tread grooves, or uneven tire pressure can all cause abnormal noises from tires while driving. Below is an analysis of the reasons for different tire noises: 1. Clicking sound: The tire may have picked up a nail or small stones. Drive directly to a repair shop for a tire patch. 2. "Squealing" metal friction sound: When the brake pads are worn too thin, they produce a "squealing" metal friction noise. The brake pads need to be replaced. 3. Humming sound: This indicates a wheel bearing issue. It is recommended to visit a repair shop as soon as possible for inspection and replacement to avoid damage to the axle or vehicle body.

How to Use Cruise Control in Hyundai Mistra?

Here is how to use the cruise control in Hyundai Mistra: 1. The CANCEL button is used to cancel cruise control, and the RES button is used to resume cruise control. 2. The cruise control function does not activate immediately after turning it on. The SET button is used to set the desired speed. (Note: The cruise control function can only be used at speeds above 30km/h.) 3. The plus and minus buttons are used to adjust the speed value, with up/down controlling the increase/decrease in speed respectively. Additional Information: Precautions for using cruise control: 1. Basic cruise control does not automatically brake in emergencies; only vehicles equipped with adaptive cruise control can do so. However, since full automation of electronic devices still requires gradual improvement, it is recommended that drivers remain attentive to road conditions. 2. Braking serves as the signal to terminate cruise control. The set speed value is retained and can be manually resumed. 3. In severe weather conditions such as snowstorms or on treacherous roads, be sure to turn off cruise control to avoid danger. 4. On downhill slopes, the vehicle may accelerate quickly. In such cases, use the brake to control speed and prevent accidents caused by loss of control. It is advisable to assist with foot braking and, if necessary, turn off cruise control.

Why was the Lexus GS discontinued?

Due to high costs leading to an excessively high selling price, this model experienced dismal sales. Below is relevant information: 1. Both the Lexus GS and ES are mid-to-large-sized sedans with very similar body dimensions. However, their positioning and tuning orientations have relatively distinct differences. The most fundamental distinction lies in the fact that the ES features a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout, leaning towards family/commercial use, while the GS has a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive setup, endowing it with stronger sportiness. 2. From a sales perspective, the Lexus GS sold only 1,228 units from January to August this year. In contrast, the ES accumulated sales of 36,120 units, accounting for 44.5% of Lexus' sales in China. Lexus has already planned to cease development of the next-generation GS model.
