Why Do 4S Stores Charge License Plate Fees?

4S stores charge license plate fees because the commission earned from selling a car is limited. Below is an introduction to vehicle license plates: 1. Introduction: A license plate, commonly known as a vehicle plate, is a board made of materials such as aluminum, sheet iron, plastic, or paper, which is mounted on the front and rear of a vehicle. It displays the vehicle's registration number, registration region, and other relevant information. 2. Function: License plates serve to number and register vehicle information. Their primary purpose is to identify the region to which the vehicle belongs and to trace the vehicle's owner and registration details through the plate. 3. Temporary License Plates: Temporary license plates are issued by the vehicle management department of the public security bureau when a car has not yet been officially registered due to pending procedures. The use of temporary plates is subject to time and regional restrictions.

I've bought cars from 4S dealerships several times, and they charge license plate registration fees mainly to save us customers time and hassle. The registration process includes filling out forms, queuing, and vehicle inspections – it sounds simple but can be quite tedious in practice. The DMV is always packed with people, and you have to bring all the necessary documents; if anything is missing, you'll waste a trip. The 4S dealership has a dedicated proxy team to handle the legwork for you, driving directly to get it done and getting the plates the same day, saving us a lot of time and effort. The fee includes proxy service charges and some transportation costs, which are actually worth the money. I think it's money well spent, especially for working professionals who can't afford to waste half a day on this. Doing it yourself might be cheaper, but it's too much of a headache—I tried it once and stood in line from morning till night, my feet were numb. Overall, this fee is part of the service—buying a new car is all about convenience.

Does the Roewe RX5 have tire pressure monitoring?

Roewe RX5 is equipped with tire pressure monitoring. The Roewe RX5 comes with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), controlled by ABS, which constantly monitors the speed of each wheel. The tire pressure monitoring system has the following functions: 1. Prevent accidents. The tire pressure monitoring system is a type of active safety equipment that can alert the driver in time when there are signs of danger in the tires, thus avoiding accidents. 2. Make driving more economical and extend the service life of the tires. 3. Reduce wear on the suspension system. When the tire pressure is too high, it reduces the shock absorption effect of the tires themselves, increasing the burden on the vehicle's shock absorption system. Long-term use can cause significant damage to the engine chassis and suspension system. Uneven tire pressure can also easily cause the vehicle to pull to one side during braking, increasing wear on the suspension system.
