Exposing a car to the sun may lead to the following issues: 1. Engine: The engine is prone to problems. In high-temperature environments, the engine's cooling system has a reduced heat dissipation temperature difference and poor heat dissipation capability, making the engine susceptible to overheating. 2. Oil system: The oil system is prone to problems. Under high temperatures, the oil and related components may experience a series of issues, accelerating component wear and severely affecting the engine's lifespan. 3. Voltage issues: The battery may experience unstable voltage in high temperatures. When the battery temperature is high, the electrodes may oxidize due to insulation layer aging, especially the negative terminal, which can develop white oxide deposits on the electrode head, leading to unstable battery voltage.
