It can be under either name. However, in the event of a claim, the person whose name is on the policy will need to sign for the claim settlement. Below is relevant information about auto insurance: 1. Introduction: Motor vehicle insurance is a type of property insurance, also known as auto insurance, which covers the vehicle itself and third-party liability as the subject of insurance under transportation tool insurance. 2.

Where is the handbrake in an automatic transmission car?

In an automatic transmission car, the handbrake is located next to the gear lever. The position of the handbrake varies depending on the car model, with some located to the left of the foot brake. The parking brake type refers to the operation method of the parking brake. Currently, the operation methods of parking brakes in passenger cars can be divided into three types: handbrake, foot brake, and electronic parking brake. Types of handbrakes in automatic transmission cars: There is a button-type parking system, which activates the handbrake system by pressing or lifting; there is a pull-type handbrake system; there is a system that activates the handbrake by stepping on it to lift and release; and there is a more advanced automatic parking system that does not require pressing buttons or switches. When the car is parked, the handbrake automatically locks the wheels, and when starting to drive, the handbrake automatically releases. Function of the handbrake: It is used for braking when parking on flat ground or slopes, preventing the vehicle from automatically sliding when unattended, thus avoiding traffic accidents. The handbrake, technically known as the parking brake, mainly controls the rear wheels. Its principle is based on the lever principle, using a steel wire to activate the rear wheel's braking device, causing the locking tooth and gear to automatically engage with each other.

How to reset the tire pressure monitoring light on a 2018 Magotan?

There is a tire pressure reset switch on the side of the gear lever. With the ignition switch turned on, press and hold this switch button until you hear a beep, indicating the reset is complete. When the tire pressure of the car is abnormal, the tire pressure monitoring light on the dashboard will illuminate, at which point it is important to check the tires. Additional information about the tire pressure light is as follows: 1. If the tire pressure light comes on while driving, it is necessary to reduce speed, control the steering wheel, and find a safe place to conduct an inspection. 2. Other reasons that may cause the tire pressure monitoring light to come on include a leaking valve stem, the car being idle for too long, or external temperature influences. 3. If the tire pressure light comes on, you can first turn off the engine, wait 1-2 minutes, then restart the vehicle. Wait for the vehicle to stabilize and check the tire pressure values displayed on the dashboard.

What to Do When Brakes Suddenly Fail While Driving?

Solutions for sudden brake failure while driving are as follows: 1. Identify the problem in time and slow down to stop. Once you notice that the braking distance has increased or the brakes are not working properly, pull over or slow down immediately and avoid continuing to drive at high speed. Vehicles on highways should promptly pull over to the emergency lane and call for assistance. 2. Use the handbrake properly to control the vehicle. When applying the handbrake, be careful not to pull it all the way at once or too quickly, as this may damage or cause the handbrake to fail. Instead, apply gradual force and slowly pull the handbrake to its full extent. 3. Downshift appropriately to control speed. If the handbrake is slow to decelerate or fails, try using the forced downshifting method to slow the vehicle with a lower gear. Once the speed is reduced, use the handbrake in combination to bring the car to a gradual stop. 4. Look for an emergency escape route. If neither the handbrake nor forced downshifting works, honk loudly, turn on hazard lights to alert vehicles ahead to give way, and promptly find a suitable section of the road to decelerate.

What does it mean when the car displays ECO?

When the ECO indicator on the dashboard lights up, it indicates that the car's economy mode has been activated. ECO is an English abbreviation derived from the combination of Ecology (environmental protection), Conservation (energy saving), and Optimization (power). The ECO mode is further divided into active ECO driving mode and non-active ECO driving mode. When the ECO indicator on the dashboard lights up, it signifies that the car's economy mode is engaged. ECO mode is categorized into active and non-active types, with the difference being that the active type has its own dedicated button, allowing the driver to choose whether to activate it. When the driver presses the ECO mode switch, the dashboard indicator lights up, and the vehicle automatically begins adjusting settings such as throttle opening, transmission shift logic, and air conditioning output power. Non-active ECO mode does not have a dedicated button. When the dashboard ECO indicator lights up, it serves merely as a reminder function. ECO automatically evaluates your driving behavior; if your current driving operation achieves the optimal fuel supply, the dashboard will simultaneously display the ECO indicator. Most cars use the active ECO driving mode, meaning they have their own switch button. Therefore, during daily driving, the ECO mode can be activated. However, it is unnecessary to enable ECO mode when the speed exceeds 120 km/h, during idle parking, in N/P gear, or in manual mode, especially when climbing hills. Doing so would not only fail to demonstrate the fuel-saving characteristics of ECO but also affect the vehicle's power. Additionally, ECO mode typically becomes ineffective under the following circumstances: When the vehicle speed exceeds 120 km/h, the car prioritizes speed, causing the ECO mode to automatically deactivate. During idle parking or when in N/P gear or manual mode, ECO may also become ineffective. When high torque output is required, such as when climbing a hill, the engine control unit prioritizes ensuring sufficient power to drive the vehicle, and the ECO mode will not operate.
