Why doesn't the automatic transmission car move when releasing the brake?

1 Answers

Here are the reasons and solutions for why an automatic transmission car doesn't move when releasing the brake: 1. Steep slope: On very steep slopes, it is normal for an automatic transmission car not to move when releasing the brake. Due to the steep slope and increased resistance caused by inertia, the car needs more forward power than resistance to move. Solution: Simply press the accelerator. 2. Transmission settings of the vehicle: Some car models are designed to require pressing the accelerator to move. Even when the gear is in D (Drive), the car will automatically disconnect the power if the accelerator is not pressed, effectively putting it in neutral. Solution: Press the accelerator. 3. Vehicle malfunction: There might be issues with the transmission, drivetrain, throttle, etc. The exact cause needs to be diagnosed by a 4S shop. Solution: Repair based on the diagnosis.
