When reversing to the right, turn the steering wheel to the left. Introduction to reversing directions: When reversing, the direction in which the steering wheel is turned determines the direction the rear of the car will move. Turning the steering wheel to the right will make the rear of the car move to the right. Whether reversing or driving normally, the movement direction of the car body is consistent with the direction of the steering wheel. When reversing, turning the steering wheel to the left will make the rear of the car move to the left, and turning it to the right will make the rear move to the right. When correcting, if the rear of the car deviates to one side, the steering wheel should be turned in the opposite direction (the amount of turn should match the deviation). For example, if the car body leans to the left, the steering wheel should be turned to the right to straighten it. Introduction to reversing correction methods: When reversing, check the rearview mirror and turn the steering wheel toward the side where the distance appears wider. So, if the right side is wider, turn the steering wheel to the right and observe the rearview mirror. When the car body is about to correct, return the steering wheel slightly. When reversing into a right parking space, first observe the left rearview mirror before turning the steering wheel. After turning the steering wheel fully to the right, observe the right rearview mirror. When straightening, observe the left rearview mirror again to ensure both front and rear wheels can enter the space, then adjust the car body accordingly.

Can You Buy a Car at a 4S Store at Night?

4S stores do not sell cars at night. Here are the specific reasons: 1. Reasons: Sales personnel require coordination from various internal departments such as finance, service, administration, and security, as well as support from external units like financial and insurance services. Without staff from auxiliary departments or online support, customers cannot receive a satisfactory service experience. Poor lighting at night also affects the experience. 2. Advantages of 4S stores: Brand advantage—4S stores have strong brand recognition and competitiveness, especially for well-known car brands with significant market share. Complete and standardized service system—customers can access value-added services such as car information, market trends, after-sales service, maintenance guidelines, and spare parts supply. Guarantee of genuine parts—ensures customers avoid issues with after-sales service, repairs, and maintenance. Value-added services—customers receive additional benefits when purchasing a car. Customer interaction—enhances customer value, satisfaction, and retention, boosting car sales and the company's competitive edge.

Reasons for Engine Energy-Saving Auto Start-Stop System

Below are the related reasons for the engine auto start-stop system: 1. Low battery charge: When the vehicle has not reached the ideal operating state and the battery charge is too low, insufficient voltage will cause the auto start-stop system to not work. This is because during engine shutdown, components like the engine cooling fan and in-car air conditioning require power to operate. Engine coolant temperature being too high or too low can also prevent the auto start-stop system from functioning. 2. Excessive temperature difference between inside and outside the car: When the vehicle has not reached the state set by the driver (such as when the air conditioning is on in summer), if the engine is turned off, the air conditioning compressor will not work. Once the temperature inside the car differs too much from the set temperature, the auto start-stop system will restart the engine. 3. Low-speed driving: In other situations during low-speed driving, such as when the speed does not reach 5km/h after starting, or during repeated acceleration and deceleration with speeds below 15km/h.

Can You Buy a Flood-Damaged Car as a New Vehicle?

You won't purchase flood-damaged cars as new vehicles from authorized 4S stores. Here are the details: Authorized 4S stores: These dealerships operate under strict regulations and typically don't sell vehicles with potential hazards, though exceptions exist. Some 4S stores may internally sell flood-damaged vehicles. While such cars can be repaired to some extent, they carry significant safety risks and hidden malfunctions. Hazards of flood damage: Damage to electronic control systems and components: Water immersion causes corrosion and rusting of vehicle wiring, potentially leading to sudden engine stall due to short circuits or brake failure during operation - consequences could be disastrous. Engine damage: When water level exceeds the engine air intake, water enters the cylinder chamber. Since water is incompressible, attempting to restart a flooded engine creates tremendous counterforce that bends connecting rods and punctures cylinder walls, resulting in catastrophic engine failure.

What Compensation Can Be Claimed for New Car Repairs?

When repairing a vehicle within the warranty period, if the repair time exceeds 5 days, you can claim compensation. Here are the relevant details: Reasonable Compensation: Users have the right to request a replacement vehicle or reasonable transportation compensation fees. Warranty Period: The warranty period refers to the duration during which product damage repairs are covered. If the product provided by the seller does not meet requirements, the seller is obligated to perform free repairs within the warranty period. The commonly mentioned 5-year or 100,000-kilometer warranty mainly covers the car's core components, such as the engine, transmission, drivetrain, and chassis. These parts have a relatively low probability of failure and higher repair costs, so issues with these core components are rare within 5 years. For consumable parts like tires, rims, headlights, and brakes, the dealer typically only provides a warranty of 3-6 months or 5,000 kilometers.
