What Causes Heat Underfoot While Driving?
1 Answers
The reasons for heat underfoot while driving may include improper driver operation (incorrect air conditioning vent direction) and poor floorboard insulation. Improper driver operation: If the driver sets the air conditioning to blow towards the feet with a high temperature setting, such issues may occur. Solution: Change the air conditioning vent direction to other positions and lower the temperature setting. Poor floorboard insulation: Over time, the insulation performance of the floorboard deteriorates, allowing significant heat from the engine exhaust pipe to enter the cabin and concentrate around the driver's foot area. Solution: Install additional insulation padding to improve heat resistance, or inspect the floorboard for any damage that may require welding repairs for proper sealing.
