Even if the electronic key is left inside the luggage compartment, the key anti-lockout function can be activated by pressing the luggage compartment unlock button on the luggage compartment lid to open it. When all doors are locked, the key anti-lockout function can still be activated even if the spare electronic key is left inside the luggage compartment, allowing the luggage compartment to be opened. Before closing the luggage compartment, ensure to check the position of the key. If any door is unlocked, use the luggage compartment opening switch to open the luggage compartment in this case. When all doors are locked, even if the electronic key is left inside the luggage compartment, the key may not be detected depending on its position and surrounding radio wave conditions.

What causes the battery light to illuminate on the dashboard?

The reasons why the battery light illuminates on the dashboard are: 1. Battery failure, such as depleted power or battery malfunction. The solution is to use a multimeter to test the battery voltage. If the voltage is low, recharge it to restore power; if the battery is malfunctioning, replace it. 2. Loose or oxidized battery terminals, which can cause poor contact and trigger the battery light. The solution is to clean and tighten the battery connections. 3. A loose alternator belt or tensioner can cause the charging system to malfunction, resulting in the battery light illuminating. The solution is to replace the belt or adjust the tensioner. 4. Malfunctioning alternator voltage regulator or excitation circuit can cause the battery light to illuminate. The solution is to troubleshoot the alternator.

What does the Buick ESC warning light mean?

Buick ESC warning light indicates that the vehicle's Electronic Stability Control system is not functioning. Here are the solutions: 1. Try restarting: When the ESC light comes on, you can try restarting the engine, then press the ESC off button on the vehicle, and finally restart again. 2. 4S store maintenance: If the Buick ESC warning light remains on after the above operations, it is recommended to go to a 4S store for inspection and repair. This is because the ESC warning light coming on is a relatively complex fault issue. It could be caused by software system alarms, sensor failures, or short circuits in the wiring. False alarms are also possible, so specialized fault diagnostic equipment is needed for troubleshooting and confirmation.

Will Fuel Overflow When Refueling a Fixed Amount?

If you refuel a fixed amount, the fuel will not overflow when the tank is full. Here are the risks associated with fuel overflow: 1. Fire hazard: In hot weather, it can easily cause a fire. 2. Damage to parts: Spilled gasoline can soak surrounding components, causing certain damage. 3. Fuel tank expansion: Gasoline is volatile, and evaporation produces gases, especially when driving on bumpy roads. If the tank is filled to the point of overflow, there won’t be enough space to accommodate these gases, leading to tank expansion. If the tank’s vent is blocked, negative pressure can form inside the tank, potentially causing fuel supply issues in the vehicle.

Who is Responsible for Accidents During Test Drives?

In the event of an accident during a test drive, both the test driver and the 4S store are responsible. If a collision occurs during the test drive, resulting in injury to a person or property damage, and the vehicle is uninsured, the 4S store should bear the liability within the compulsory traffic insurance limit. If the vehicle is insured, the insurance company will compensate within the mandatory third-party liability insurance limit, and the remaining losses will be shared between the test driver and the 4S store based on their respective fault. If there is evidence that the non-motor vehicle driver or pedestrian is at fault, the liability of the motor vehicle party may be appropriately reduced according to the degree of fault. If the motor vehicle party is not at fault, they will bear no more than 10% of the compensation liability. If the loss from the traffic accident is caused intentionally by the non-motor vehicle driver or pedestrian colliding with the motor vehicle, the motor vehicle party will not bear any compensation liability.

Is Transmission Flush Necessary?

No need for flushing, simply replacing the transmission oil is sufficient as gear oil has a cleaning effect. Signs indicating the need for transmission oil replacement are as follows: 1. Oil quality issues: If the transmission oil shows signs of deterioration, such as turning black, becoming viscous, or emitting an odor, it should be replaced immediately. If these symptoms appear after the vehicle has been driven for an extended period; 2. Poor acceleration: If the transmission frequently experiences gear shift shocks, slipping, poor acceleration, or abnormal noises, it is advisable to replace the transmission oil. Generally, it is recommended to replace automatic transmission oil every 2-3 years or at 60,000-80,000 kilometers. Failure to replace it in time can affect the vehicle's performance, fuel consumption, and the lifespan of the transmission.
