The fogging on the vehicle's windshield is caused by a significant temperature difference between the interior and exterior under current conditions. Solutions for windshield fogging: 1. Front windshield defrosting: Generally, the front windshield defrosting function is used to handle the front windshield based on the driving environment. If equipped with automatic air conditioning and the ability to select air vent positions, it is recommended to choose the front windshield and center vent positions and turn on the rear windshield heating function. This way, the temperature inside the car will be continuously regulated, preventing fogging. 2. Rear windshield heating: If it is not possible to select both directions for air venting simultaneously, turn on the front windshield defrosting function and the rear windshield heating function. If the side windows fog up, slightly opening the windows can quickly remove the fog. After closing the windows, once the interior temperature rises, no further fogging will occur.

What to Do When Water Enters the Car Cabin?

Vehicle water ingress can be divided into two scenarios: 1. Water entering while the vehicle is in motion. For vehicles that stall due to water exposure, the repair shop needs to check for water traces in the intake and exhaust systems on the engine side. The intake system should be inspected in the following order: air filter, intake manifold, back of the valves, and inside the cylinders. For the exhaust system, the entire exhaust pipe should be removed and stood upright (with the exhaust outlet facing downward) to check for water drainage. If rainwater has entered the engine cylinders, the engine must be disassembled to remove the water. 2. Water entering while the vehicle is parked. For vehicles severely flooded while parked, the repair shop typically removes all interior components from the cabin. Then, they inspect wiring, ECUs, and other components for short circuits or burns, replacing damaged parts as necessary. As for waterlogged carpets and upholstery, they can be cleaned and dried.

Does the deformation of the rear lower control arm affect its support force?

Deformation of the rear lower control arm does affect its support force. Function of the lower control arm: The lower control arm, one of the suspension arms in a vehicle, primarily supports the body and shock absorbers, while also buffering vibrations during driving. The shock absorber provides excellent auxiliary support to the lower suspension. Together with the shock absorber and spring, it forms a complete suspension system. The lower control arm is responsible for bearing weight and steering, and is equipped with rubber bushings for fixation and connection to the shock absorber. Worn-out bushings can cause abnormal noises during driving, reduced shock absorption, and heavy steering. Severe cases may lead to control arm fracture, resulting in vehicle loss of control and accidents! It is advisable to replace damaged parts promptly. Symptoms of a damaged lower control arm: Reduced handling and comfort, decreased safety performance, abnormal noises, inaccurate alignment parameters, vehicle pulling to one side, and wear or damage to other components (such as tire wear). Steering may also be affected or even fail.
