Used cars from 4S store trade-ins generally go to the following places: 1. In-store sales: Most 4S stores have their own used car departments. If they receive some high-quality used cars, after refurbishment, the 4S store will directly place them in the used car display area for sale. 2. Resale to used car dealers: Except for a small portion of high-quality used cars that are kept for direct sale in the 4S store, the rest are transferred by the 4S store to partnered dealers in the used car market to earn a portion of the price difference. 3. Sold as parts: For some used cars in poor condition, the 4S store is likely to dismantle them into parts and then sell them to repair shops and some used car dealers. These dismantled parts are what the industry refers to as "salvage parts."

Solution: It is normal for chains to produce noise after prolonged use. To ensure the smooth and silent operation of the sliding mechanism, it is recommended to apply lubricating oil every 2-3 months for maintenance. Use a lubricant to clean the black strips on the door, the corresponding slots on the door frame, and the lock cylinder on the door. Apply some dashboard wax on the door rubber seals. When to Inspect: If the vehicle has been used for a while, it is necessary to check whether the door seals have aged. Since the seals are made of rubber, they will gradually deteriorate and crack over time, leading to noticeable wind noise and friction sounds for passengers. If the seals are aged or damaged, it is recommended to replace them directly. Additionally, regularly clean the dust and rainwater between the seal gaps during daily use to prevent aging.
