What to Do If the Car Is Not Driven for a Long Time?

[AddysonDella]

If a car is not driven for a long time, the following precautions should be taken when parking: 1. Give the car body a thorough cleaning before long-term parking: This helps prevent corrosion and oxidation of the car body. Use a car cover to protect the vehicle from dust and other damage. 2. Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery (power off): This prevents power consumption. When restarting, simply reconnect the terminal. This ensures the car won't fail to start due to a drained battery from prolonged inactivity. 3. Check the tire pressure: For long-term parking, such as over six months, check the tire pressure and inflate the tires if the pressure is insufficient. 4. Do not leave food or drinks in the car: Avoid placing food or beverages inside the car during long-term parking. Opened food and drinks can mold within three to four days, causing air pollution inside the car.
