The reason for the hard braking and inability to stop in the Roewe 350 is usually related to insufficient or lost brake vacuum assistance. It is recommended to check the brake booster pump, pipelines, and master cylinder for leaks or faults at a repair shop and repair them accordingly. Relevant information is introduced as follows: 1. Introduction to the vacuum booster pump: The vacuum booster pump only generates vacuum when the engine is running, forming assistance. When the engine is not working, it no longer generates assistance, but there is still some vacuum remaining, which completely disappears after stepping on the brakes when the engine is turned off. 2. Introduction to brakes: Brakes are mechanical braking devices that can slow down the speed of the vehicle, also known as decelerators. Simply put: The car brake pedal is located under the steering wheel. Stepping on the brake pedal causes the brake lever linkage to be pressurized and transmitted to the brake shoes on the brake drum, clamping the brake disc to slow down or stop the car.

I once experienced a sudden brake hardening issue with my Roewe 350 where the brakes completely failed. It happened while driving in the city—when I pressed the brake pedal, it felt as hard as a rock, and the car kept rolling forward, nearly causing a rear-end collision. I immediately pulled over and had it towed to a repair shop. The inspection revealed a faulty vacuum booster pump, where air leakage in the vacuum tube caused the loss of power assistance. Other possible causes could be insufficient brake fluid or air entering the system, leading to hydraulic failure, or worn-out brake pads slowing down braking performance. Since then, I’ve made it a routine to get regular maintenance, always checking the booster pump and fluid condition. I’ve also developed the habit of checking the fluid reservoir level myself. Safety is non-negotiable—if anything feels off, I stop driving immediately and call for repairs. Prevention is far better than dealing with consequences. Now, before driving, I lightly press the brakes a few times to test their response and always watch out for unusual noises or changes in pedal firmness to ensure everything’s normal before hitting the road.

What is the safe capacity of a car fuel tank?

Generally, the safe capacity of a car fuel tank is 95% of its actual capacity. The methods to open the fuel tank are as follows: Mechanical key opening: This is commonly seen in some rugged off-road vehicles. Nowadays, most family cars do not use mechanical keys for opening the fuel tank because it is relatively complicated to operate. In-car switch method: The location of the in-car fuel tank switch varies among different car models. It might be found on the floor to the left of the driver's seat, on the left front door panel, or on the center console, usually marked with a fuel pump symbol. However, it's important to note that the in-car switch can easily lead to the driver forgetting to turn off the engine before refueling. Therefore, drivers should always remember to turn off the engine before refueling. Press-to-open method: The press-to-open fuel tank door is currently the most convenient method. The driver only needs to park the car, and the fuel attendant can press to open the tank for refueling. However, when not parked for refueling, drivers should always remember to engage the central locking system; otherwise, the fuel tank cap can be opened.

Why didn't I get the green book when buying a car in full payment?

When purchasing a car with full payment, you should definitely receive the green book. If you encounter this situation, it's best to inquire with the 4S dealership or the staff at the vehicle management office. Here is some relevant information about the green book: Definition: The big green book refers to the vehicle registration certificate. The vehicle registration certificate is a necessary property ownership document for the vehicle, issued by the public security vehicle management department after completing the vehicle registration process. It is kept by the vehicle owner and not carried with the vehicle. This document is required for any subsequent vehicle registration procedures such as transfer or change of ownership, and it records the vehicle's relevant information, serving as the vehicle's household registration. Notes: If the motor vehicle registration certificate is lost, missing, or damaged, a replacement certificate must be applied for, and the vehicle must be presented for inspection. The vehicle management office should confirm the vehicle's identity, review the submitted proofs and documents, and issue a replacement or renewed motor vehicle registration certificate within one day of receiving the application. For vehicles registered before the implementation of the motor vehicle registration certificate system that have not yet applied for one, the vehicle owner can apply for the certificate at the local vehicle management office. However, if the vehicle owner applies for modification, transfer, or mortgage registration, they must apply for the motor vehicle registration certificate from the vehicle management office before submitting the application.
