If the car owner has previously purchased auto damage insurance, flood damage caused by natural disasters can be compensated within the coverage scope and liability limits of the auto damage insurance. If the owner did not purchase auto damage insurance, the insurance will not cover the damage. Legal Provisions: Insurance companies can compensate for losses caused by heavy rain to vehicles. However, losses resulting from the insured vehicle being started in water that submerges the exhaust pipe or from improper operation due to negligence after being submerged, leading to engine damage, are exempt from coverage. General Auto Insurance Coverage: Exclusions under auto damage insurance typically include: earthquakes; war, military conflicts, terrorist activities, riots, seizures, confiscations, impoundments, government requisitions; nuclear reactions, nuclear pollution, nuclear radiation; impacts or corrosion from cargo carried by the vehicle; spontaneous combustion and fires of unknown origin.

What is the reason for the clicking sound when turning the steering wheel to the limit while reversing?

The reason for the clicking sound when turning the steering wheel to the limit while reversing is: there is abnormal noise in the tire area, which may be caused by issues with the brake pads or brake discs. When the driver turns the steering wheel to the limit, the pressure of the power steering pump will increase instantaneously. Under overload conditions, internal stress will be generated within the pump body, but this stress has nowhere to release, so it can only impact the oil seal of the oil reservoir and the rubber sleeve of the steering gear. Over time, this can lead to oil leakage from the hoses and aging of the rubber sleeve. In severe cases, oil leakage may cause damage to the power steering pump. The abnormal sound produced when the steering wheel is turned to the limit is actually caused by the resistance of the hydraulic oil. The steering wheel is a wheel-shaped device used to control the direction of cars, ships, airplanes, etc. Its function is to convert the force applied by the driver to the edge of the steering wheel into torque, which is then transmitted to the steering shaft.

Should a New Car Be Driven at High Speed?

New cars can be driven at high speeds, which is primarily done to remove carbon deposits from the engine. During the break-in period, prolonged low-speed driving can easily lead to carbon buildup in the engine. This practice is not only applicable to new cars but also to vehicles frequently driven in congested areas. However, avoid exceeding 200 km/h on highways; maintaining a speed between 100 to 120 km/h is sufficient. After the break-in period, it is advisable to take the new car on the highway for a high-speed run. The purpose is to allow the new pistons and camshaft inside the engine to experience their first rapid operation, ensuring better contact between them. Driving at high speeds also enables the transmission gears to rotate quickly, promoting smoother meshing between the new gears. This practice helps the car achieve better power performance and smoother gear shifts in future driving.

What Causes Excessive Noise Inside the Car?

Excessive noise inside the car can be attributed to: 1. Engine noise; 2. Tire noise; 3. Wind noise; 4. Chassis noise. The solution to car noise is to identify the source of the noise and then address it accordingly. Engine noise and chassis noise can be reduced by installing soundproofing materials; tire noise can be mitigated by switching to tires with better noise reduction performance. Taking engine noise as an example, engine abnormal sounds can be categorized into cold-start abnormal sounds and hot-engine abnormal sounds. Cold-start abnormal sounds refer to the noises coming from the engine compartment when starting the car, which disappear after the engine warms up. This type of noise is often caused by the car being parked for an extended period without normal operation, leading to a rattling sound. There are more reasons for hot-engine abnormal sounds. If you notice that the engine noise is gradually increasing, it is advisable to promptly visit a repair shop for inspection.
