Reasons for steering wheel vibration during braking: 1. Excessive clearance between brake discs and brake pads, or uneven brake disc surfaces. When braking at high speeds, the brake pedal may exhibit slight pulsation. Resurfacing the brake discs can restore normal operation; 2. Surface imbalance or deformation. The braking system has strict requirements for surface flatness. Some brake discs may have dirt, debris, or heat-induced deformation; 3. Other issues. If the steering wheel vibrates slightly even during low-speed driving, it's likely due to wheel alignment or steering system problems. In such cases, it's best to have the vehicle inspected and repaired at a 4S shop or repair facility.

How Many Kilometers to Replace Brake Pads

Under normal circumstances, the front brake pads should be replaced every 30,000-50,000 kilometers, while the rear brake pads should be replaced every 60,000-100,000 kilometers. Notes on brake pad replacement: 1. Based on mileage: For household cars, you only need to consider replacing brake pads after driving 30,000 to 60,000 kilometers. Generally, the front brake pads wear faster than the rear ones, so you can check the front brake pads first during inspection. 2. Dashboard: The car dashboard has a brake pad warning light. When this warning light comes on, the brake pads are no longer usable, so you should check them in advance. 3. Thickness: To determine whether the brake pads need replacement, check their thickness. During maintenance at a 4S shop, ask the mechanic to inspect the brake pad thickness. They should be replaced when worn down to 0.5 millimeters.

Will reversing on the highway definitely be captured by cameras?

Reversing on the highway will definitely be captured by cameras. According to relevant regulations, reversing on the highway is punishable by a fine, a one-time deduction of 12 points from the driver's license, and the temporary suspension of the driver's license. A full-score study notice will be issued, and the driver can only retrieve their license after passing a theoretical exam. When a motor vehicle needs to stop temporarily for repairs due to a malfunction, the driver must turn on the right turn signal in advance to leave the driving lane and stop in the emergency parking lane or on the right shoulder. Repairing the vehicle on the driving lane is prohibited. If a motor vehicle cannot leave the driving lane or must stop on the shoulder due to a malfunction or accident, the driver must immediately turn on the hazard warning flashers and place a warning sign 100 meters behind the vehicle in the direction of travel. At night, the driver must also turn on the width marker lights and tail lights. The driver and passengers must quickly move to the right shoulder or emergency parking lane and immediately report to the traffic police.

What Issues Might Arise After Replacing the Rear Windshield?

At high speeds, wind can enter through the gaps between the windshield and the car body, leading to increased interior noise. Precautions after windshield replacement: Do not wash the car for three days after replacing the windshield, and remove the tape securing the windshield position only after three days; try to avoid driving on excessively bumpy roads, and refrain from sudden braking or rapid acceleration; do not insert parking permits or other cards into the gap between the front windshield and the dashboard; avoid driving on highways, keeping the maximum speed below 80 km/h; do not apply window tint within seven days. Maintenance methods: Regularly inspect the wiper blades, as they are one of the primary causes of front windshield damage. Over time, wiper blades can age, and if the end of the wiper arm directly rubs against the windshield, it may not only fail to clean rainwater effectively but also scratch the glass. Additionally, wiper blades that accumulate dust can scratch the front windshield, leaving small marks and fine lines on the glass.
