Ford EcoSport's tailgate release cable is located under the trunk. Here are solutions for when the trunk won't open: 1. Press the button: Hold the trunk release button on the remote for three seconds. 2. Unlock button: With doors unlocked, press the button near the high-mounted stop lamp. The trunk can be opened/closed either electrically or via remote. To open, simply press the interior button or remote key; to close, press the close button inside the trunk, interior close button, or use the remote key.

How do free ETC users pass on highways?

Free ETC users on highways should choose ETC lanes for both entry and exit to avoid charges; manual lanes for both entry and exit also incur no charges; entering via manual lane and exiting via ETC lane will not work as there's no entry information, and the exit barrier won't lift; entering via ETC lane and exiting via manual lane is allowed without charges. ETC usage precautions: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. When the vehicle ahead is stationary, maintain a distance of over 10 meters to prevent automatic sensing and payment for the vehicle ahead, in case its ETC device is faulty or absent. The recognized speed for ETC lane passage is 20km/h. Excessive speed may prevent reading of vehicle device information, leading to failed charges. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, or detachment/loosening of the ETC electronic tag, will render the tag ineffective. It can be taken to the bank where the ETC card was issued or to a highway service office for inspection. Non-deliberate loosening or detachment only requires reactivation.

Is pressing the P parking brake to unlock it?

P gear refers to the parking gear, the starting gear. When the vehicle is parked and not in use, the gear is in this position, at which point the wheels are mechanically locked to prevent rolling. Below is related content: 1. Automatic transmission: An automatic transmission does not require the driver to manually shift gears; the vehicle will automatically select the appropriate gear based on driving speed and traffic conditions. A typical automatic transmission car has six gear positions, from top to bottom: P, R, N, D, S, L. Driving an automatic transmission car only requires the use of the parking gear P, reverse gear R, neutral gear N, and drive gear D to fully meet general driving needs. However, in some special driving environments, other functional gears may be needed. 2. Function of P gear: P is used for parking, utilizing a mechanical device to lock the rotating parts of the car, preventing it from moving. When the engine is running, as long as the gear lever is in the driving position, an automatic transmission car can move easily. When parking, the gear lever must be shifted into the P position, which locks the output shaft through the internal parking brake mechanism of the transmission and tightens the hand brake to prevent the car from moving. When the car needs to remain stationary for an extended period or before leaving the vehicle after parking, the hand brake should be engaged, and the lever should be pushed into the P position.

What is the model of off-road tires?

Off-road positioning: SUV tread pattern type, mainly Highway Pattern (HP)/Highway Terrain (HT), followed by 4*4 which is between HT and All-Terrain (AT). AT is for off-road, and the most off-road is Mud-Terrain (MT). The following is related content: 1. Specifications and dimensions: The smaller the sidewall height of the tire, the more suitable it is for highways; the higher, the more suitable for off-road. Generally, tires for off-road use have a sidewall height of around 16cm, while highway-type tires are around 130. The wider the tire width, the more suitable it is for off-road, with nominal widths typically being 245/255/265. 2. Tire model: The markings are mostly in the form of: 215/70R15. The meanings of these numbers are: 215 represents the tire section width in mm, generally ranging from 145—285mm, in increments of 10mm; 70 is the aspect ratio, which is the ratio of the tire sidewall height to the tire section width, with 70 representing 70%. Generally, the aspect ratio of tires ranges between 30%—80%. Under normal circumstances, ordinary cars should not use tires with an aspect ratio >75%, while luxury cars and high-performance sports cars are recommended to use tires with an aspect ratio

Can You Brake with the Clutch Fully Depressed?

You can brake with the clutch fully depressed. Here are the details: 1. For reverse parking and parallel parking, in these two test scenarios, you should first fully depress the clutch and then quickly press the brake. Since the entire test is conducted in first gear at a slow speed, the vehicle will not shake. 2. When encountering a red light or pulling over to park, during the third test, due to the higher speed, you should first use engine braking to slow down, release the accelerator in advance, then fully depress the clutch to downshift. As you approach the stopping point, you can slowly press the brake to a full stop. More details are as follows: 1. Situations where both the clutch and brake are fully depressed simultaneously: During hill-start parking, to prevent rolling backward, you need to quickly depress both the clutch and brake simultaneously. In case of an emergency during the test, only depressing the clutch will cause the vehicle to surge forward due to inertia, so it is generally advisable to depress both the clutch and brake simultaneously. 2. Situations where you brake first and then depress the clutch: During the third test, if the speed is high, you can first brake to reduce the speed and then depress the clutch to stop.

What to Do When There's a Rubber Friction Sound When Turning the Steering Wheel?

When there's a rubber friction sound while turning the steering wheel, it is generally caused by friction interference noise between the dust cover at the bottom of the steering column and the steering column during relative motion. You can check if the dust cover is installed correctly or apply a layer of lubricating grease to eliminate the noise. Recommendation: If any issues arise during vehicle use, it is advisable to promptly visit a professional repair shop for inspection to avoid unnecessary trouble. Reasons for the rubber friction sound when turning the steering wheel: 1. Friction sound between the steering column and floor mat: If the abnormal sound comes from below the steering wheel when turning it, inspect the steering column and car floor mat. An oversized aftermarket floor mat may directly contact the steering column, causing friction as the steering column rotates. Lack of lubrication can result in friction noise, which can be resolved by applying some lubricating oil. 2. Faulty clock spring (spiral cable): If the sound originates from inside the steering wheel, it is likely caused by interference from the clock spring inside the steering wheel. Remove the steering wheel's clock spring and apply some grease to see if the noise persists. If it does, replace the clock spring. 3. Lack of lubrication in the shock absorber's thrust bearing: If the abnormal sound comes from outside the car when turning the steering wheel, it might be due to insufficient lubrication in the shock absorber's thrust bearing. Open the hood and listen to determine if the sound is coming from the shock absorber's top mount. If it is the thrust bearing, applying grease may help. If the noise continues after greasing, replacement is necessary.
