Dongfeng Honda recall refers to Dongfeng Honda Automobile Co., Ltd. filing a recall plan with the State Administration for Market Regulation in accordance with the requirements of the 'Regulations on the Recall of Defective Automobile Products' and the 'Implementation Measures for the Regulations on the Recall of Defective Automobile Products'. Here are the relevant details: 1. Recall Scope and Reason: Dongfeng Honda has decided to recall a total of 29,297 units of the 2019 INSPIRE vehicles produced between March 8, 2018, and August 8, 2019, starting from August 30, 2019. The recall is due to the design of the air flow rate at the outlet of the engine intercooler. When driving in high-temperature and high-humidity environments such as heavy rain, a small amount of condensed water may accumulate at the intercooler outlet. During rapid acceleration, condensed water droplets may be sucked into the combustion chamber, causing engine misfire. In extreme cases, this may trigger the engine protection mode, leading to engine stalling. 2. Solution: Dongfeng Honda will install a device to optimize the air flow rate at the intercooler outlet for the affected vehicles free of charge to eliminate potential safety hazards. Considering the current rainy season, before the recall repair, drivers should exercise caution when driving in heavy rain conditions. If they notice restricted acceleration, they should promptly pull over, turn off the engine, and restart the vehicle to deactivate the engine protection mode, allowing normal operation to resume.

Can I Get Compensation for Water Damage Without Purchasing Water Wading Insurance?

Compensation is available for water damage even without purchasing water wading insurance. Below is relevant information about water wading insurance: Auto Insurance Reform: After the 2020 auto insurance reform, water wading insurance was included in the coverage of vehicle damage insurance. If a vehicle is submerged due to natural disasters or accidental incidents, a claim can be filed under vehicle damage insurance, and the required claim materials must be submitted as per the insurance company's requirements. For direct losses to the insured vehicle caused by water damage that are not within the scope of exclusions, the insurance company will provide compensation within the agreed limits. Important Notes: When a car is submerged while parked on the roadside or in a basement, as long as it does not involve starting the vehicle in water, insurance claims can be processed. Of course, subsequent expenses such as vehicle cleaning, inspection fees, and vehicle damage costs can also be claimed.

What is the reason for the Roewe 350 clutch pedal not returning after being pressed down?

Clutch pedal not returning is most likely due to a malfunction in the clutch system. Common failure points include: a faulty release bearing in the clutch system, a malfunctioning pressure plate in the clutch system, the clutch disc being worn to its limit, or poor return of the clutch pedal in the clutch system. If the clutch does not spring back after being pressed down, immediately stop and inspect the following areas: Area 1: Faulty return spring. Check if the return spring of the clutch pedal is in good condition. If there is an issue with the spring, it is recommended to replace it promptly. Area 2: Air in the hydraulic line or wear in the working cylinder can cause the pedal not to return. Regularly replace the transmission fluid, bleed the air from the system, and replace any worn components. Area 3: Insufficient return force of the clutch pedal spring. Over time, the spring's elasticity may weaken. It should be inspected every few years, and replaced immediately if any defects are found. Area 4: Blockage in the return oil hole of the clutch master cylinder. Lack of oil may only cause poor clutch disengagement or no disengagement, but it is unlikely to prevent the pedal from springing back. Check the clutch pedal travel and the pivot pin.

Will the insurance company compensate for a flooded car without water damage insurance?

Yes, it can be compensated. After the auto insurance reform, water damage insurance has been included in the vehicle damage insurance. As long as the owner has purchased vehicle damage insurance, the vehicle can be compensated even if water damage insurance was not purchased separately. However, the compensation rules vary depending on different situations. If the vehicle was stationary when it was flooded, the vehicle damage insurance can be claimed, and the insurance company will compensate based on the actual loss of the vehicle. Vehicle Damage Insurance: This refers to a type of commercial auto insurance where the insurance company compensates within a reasonable range for damage to the insured vehicle caused by an accident while the insured or an authorized driver is operating it. Additionally, in the event of an insurance claim, the necessary and reasonable rescue expenses paid by the insured to prevent or reduce the loss of the insured vehicle shall be borne by the insurer, up to the insured amount. Water Damage Insurance: Also known as "Engine Special Loss Insurance," it is an add-on to vehicle damage insurance. Apart from other vehicle damages, it provides separate compensation for engine damage caused by water submersion.
