What to Do When the Plastic Underbody Shield of a Car is Damaged?
1 Answers
The plastic underbody shield of a car should be replaced or repaired promptly. The underbody plastic shield is an engine protection device custom-designed for various car models, primarily to prevent mud from covering the engine and to avoid engine damage caused by impacts from uneven road surfaces during driving. The underbody shield helps maintain the cleanliness of the engine compartment, prevents road water and dust from entering, and shields the engine from hard objects like gravel kicked up by tires during driving. While it may not affect the engine in the short term, prolonged exposure can have adverse effects on the engine.
