What does the bright red exclamation mark in a car mean?
1 Answers
The bright red exclamation mark in a car indicates a malfunction in the vehicle's braking system. The reasons for the bright red exclamation mark are: 1. Severe wear of the car's brake pads: The thickness of car brake pads is generally 10mm, and when worn down to 6mm, it affects their normal use; 2. Insufficient brake fluid: The car's brake fluid should be replenished every 40,000 kilometers, otherwise, it may lead to weakened braking or even brake failure; 3. Overheated brake pads: Prolonged continuous braking can cause abnormal temperature rise in the brake pads, triggering the brake warning light; 4. Driving without releasing the handbrake: If the handbrake is not released while driving, it can increase wear on both the brake pads and the engine.
