If the steering wheel is crooked after hitting the curb, it is necessary to go to a repair shop or 4S store for professional repair. Here are the solutions for a crooked steering wheel: 1. The steering system is an important part of car safety. Once there is abnormal noise during steering or the car drifts on a flat road, it should be inspected and repaired in time. Vehicle drift to the right is more complicated. First, check tire pressure, tread pattern, brand, model, and wear level, as most drifts are caused by tire defects. Then perform a four-wheel alignment to adjust the positioning angles. If the above steps are completed, the alignment data is correct, and the car still drifts, consider body correction and trial replacement of the subframe. After each replacement, alignment is required. 2. The standard method to adjust a crooked steering wheel is to perform a four-wheel alignment. First, determine the center position of the steering gear, then adjust the tie rods to ensure the front toe is consistent on both sides to complete the adjustment.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a Toyota RAV4?

Toyota RAV4 is equipped with a direct tire pressure monitoring system. After the tire pressure monitoring system alerts, it is necessary to check and replenish the tire pressure as soon as possible. Only after confirming that the tire pressure is normal can you continue driving. The tire pressure monitoring system will automatically reset after the vehicle has been driven for a certain distance. More details are as follows: 1. The direct tire pressure monitoring device uses pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure the tire pressure. It employs a wireless transmitter to send the pressure information from inside the tire to a central receiver module, which then displays the data for each tire's pressure. When the tire pressure is too low or there is a leak, the system will automatically alert. 2. The advantage of the direct tire pressure monitoring system is that each wheel is equipped with a pressure sensor and transmitter. If the pressure in any tire falls below 25% of the recommended cold tire pressure in the driver's manual, it will alert the driver. The warning signal is quite precise, and if a tire is punctured and the pressure drops rapidly, the direct tire pressure monitoring system can provide an immediate warning.

What to Do If Water Drips from the Chassis After Parking?

Water dripping from the car chassis can be due to two main reasons: air conditioning system drainage and water dripping from the muffler and exhaust pipe at the rear of the car. Below are the reasons for water dripping from the chassis: 1. Air conditioning system drainage occurs because in summer, the outdoor temperature is high while the interior temperature of the car with the air conditioning on is low, creating a temperature difference that causes water to drip from the chassis. 2. If the low-pressure pipes of the car's air conditioning system are not wrapped with thermal insulation foam, the surface of the pipes can easily condense moisture from the air, and water droplets will collect and drip from the lowest point of the pipes. 3. Water dripping from the muffler and exhaust pipe at the rear of the car is also a normal phenomenon, usually occurring mostly in winter. When gasoline is injected into the cylinder and mixed with air, it burns completely in the combustion chamber, producing mainly carbon dioxide and water. At high temperatures, water is discharged into the atmosphere in the form of water vapor. Since the muffler is located at the rear of the car where the temperature is relatively low, the water vapor condenses into liquid water when it cools.
