The reasons for obvious jerking when the car brakes to a stop are as follows: 1. Suspension system malfunction: The front wheel shock absorbers are in a compressed state, while the rear wheel shock absorbers are in an extended state, creating a front-low, rear-high 'nose-dive' posture. When the car comes to a complete stop, the front and rear springs return to their original positions, causing the front of the car to lift slightly and the rear to lower, resulting in a jerking sensation. Increasing the stiffness of the front suspension can resolve this issue. 2. Sudden braking: Jerking occurs during sudden braking. Avoid hard braking and try to slow down gradually instead.

Is it serious if a car chassis gets exposed to seawater?

From a chemical perspective, seawater is an electrolyte, and most components of a car chassis and other parts are made of alloys. This usually leads to galvanic redox reactions, accelerating metal corrosion, which is harmful to the car. It is recommended to clean the chassis and take protective measures, such as painting. Below are some car washing precautions: 1. Avoid using high water pressure when washing the car: In professional car washes, the water gun is carefully selected. The water pressure should generally be between 4-7Mpa. If the pressure is too low, it won't clean effectively, and if it's too high, the water flow carrying paint surface particles may impact the paint layer, causing damage. 2. Do not wash the car under direct sunlight: After rinsing the car body, water droplets on the surface can act as convex lenses, focusing sunlight on the car body, which over time can cause the paint to lose its luster. The same applies to waxing; it's best done on cloudy days or indoors.

Should I Claim Insurance for Car Scratches?

If the premium discount amount is greater than the repair cost for the car's scratches, then it's better not to file an insurance claim. If the premium discount amount is less than the repair cost for the car's scratches, then you should file an insurance claim. Below is relevant information: 1. Determine the extent of the damage and formulate a repair plan: After a car scratch occurs, you can first roughly assess the extent of the damage. For minor scratches that don't require bodywork, polishing may suffice. If the damage has reached the point of deformation, then it's necessary to take the car to a repair shop. 2. Inspection and damage assessment: After a car scratch occurs, you need to call your insurance company, specifically the company that provides your vehicle insurance. An insurance adjuster will then conduct an on-site inspection and take photos of the exterior. It's important to note that you must protect the scene of the incident.
