Reasons for water under the car floor mat: Leaking drainage plugs at the bottom of the cabin, leaking sunroof drainage pipes, leaking doors, leaking coolant from the heater core, or damaged/improperly installed air conditioning drainage pipes. Other possibilities include: 1. Sunroof leakage or poor sealing, requiring sunroof inspection; 2. Water from car washing that wasn't completely cleaned out; 3. Corrosion or leakage in the car's small radiator (used for cabin heating). If there's significant water accumulation under the rear seat floor mat, it's necessary to remove the car seats, floor mats, carpets, and floor sponges. After cleaning the accumulated water, replace any damaged control units and check for water-damaged wiring to prevent subsequent short circuits.

Can I exchange the car if it malfunctions within 15 days of purchase?

Whether a new car can be exchanged if it malfunctions within 15 days depends on the nature of the fault. If within the 15-day period, the vehicle experiences quality issues such as failure of the steering system, brake system failure, fuel leakage, or body cracking, you can apply for an exchange or refund at the 4S store where the car was purchased. This must be done within 60 days or before the vehicle reaches 3,000 kilometers. Additional information: The automotive three-guarantee policy refers to the retail business's commitment to "repair, replacement, and refund" for sold goods. It is a credit guarantee method adopted by the seller for the buyer within a certain period after the product enters the consumer market. During the three-guarantee period: if the same fault is repaired more than 5 times, the car can be exchanged. Within the validity period of the three guarantees (which is 2 years or 50,000 kilometers, whichever comes first), if the cumulative repair time exceeds 35 days or the same product quality issue leads to more than 5 repairs, the consumer can exchange the car.

How Many Reference Points Are Needed for Parallel Parking?

Parallel parking requires identifying three reference points: 1. First point: Turn your head 135 degrees to the right and look at the wide pillar between the front and rear doors on the right side of the car. Below the rear door window, there is a small black protruding cylindrical lever (each door window has one). When the small cylindrical lever aligns with the front right corner of the parking space, it's time to turn the steering wheel fully to the right. 2. Second point: Using the side mirror, there is an issue where the rear right corner of the parking space appears as an obtuse angle of about 160 degrees in the mirror, almost forming a straight line. This position can also be determined by the intersection of the vertical rod of the rear door triangular window and the yellow line at the rear of the parking space. 3. Third point: The left rear wheel just touches the left line of the parking space. Lean your head to the left to see the left rear wheel pressing against the white dashed line on the left side of the parking space in the mirror. From the driver's position, rotate your head 135 degrees to the left and back to observe where the white dashed line on the ground intersects with the lower edge of the rear door window.

What is the optimal speed to use the S gear?

Automatic transmission's S gear is actually short for Sport gear, which is a sport mode that emphasizes power output. Due to its strong power, the S gear is generally used when overtaking or climbing hills. After completing the action, it is switched back to the more economical D gear, as from a fuel consumption perspective, the S gear mode consumes more fuel than the normal mode due to increased fuel injection at high RPMs. Below is an introduction to automatic transmission gears and usage precautions: 1. P gear: Parking gear. When the vehicle is completely stationary, press the unlock button at the front of the shift lever to engage the P gear. 2. R gear: Reverse gear. When the vehicle is completely stationary, press the brake pedal, press the unlock button at the front of the shift lever, engage the R gear, and after releasing the brake pedal, slowly press the accelerator to move the vehicle backward. 3. N gear: Neutral gear. The shift lever can be directly moved from R or D gear to N gear. When moving the shift lever out of N gear, the brake pedal must be pressed. 4. D gear: Drive gear. The shift lever can be directly moved from N gear to D gear. This gear is generally used when the vehicle is moving forward, and the system will automatically shift gears based on engine load and vehicle speed.
