If the car was not repaired at a 4S dealership, it will not appear in the maintenance records. Below is relevant information: Flood-damaged car: A flood-damaged car refers to a vehicle that has been submerged in water, with the water depth exceeding one-third of the wheel height, and the bottom components of the car body have been in prolonged contact with water. Depending on the extent of water damage, flood-damaged cars are categorized into lightly flooded and severely flooded vehicles. The reason people pay attention to 'flood-damaged cars' is due to the potential reduction in their safety performance. Hazards: Regardless of the cause, flood-damaged cars pose significant safety hazards for driving, with considerable risks. If such cars enter the market, they can present critical dangers to consumers. The longer the immersion time, the higher the likelihood of mechanical failures.

What Causes Loud Brake Noise When Reversing?

The reason for loud brake noise when reversing is: Brakes primarily operate during forward vehicle motion, causing prolonged unidirectional wear on the brake pads. This creates burrs on the reverse side, which produce abnormal sounds when rubbing against the brake disc during reverse braking. This issue can be resolved by removing and smoothing the brake pads or replacing them with higher-quality ones. More details are as follows: 1. The automotive brake system, also known as the automotive braking system, functions to: forcibly decelerate or stop moving vehicles as required by the driver; maintain stationary vehicles on various road conditions (including slopes); and stabilize speed during downhill driving. 2. Currently, most domestic automakers use front-disc-rear-drum brake systems for small and medium-sized production vehicles, with some models featuring four-wheel disc brakes. Compared to drum brakes, disc brakes are more technologically advanced, lighter in weight, and offer superior heat dissipation, braking performance, and adaptability to complex weather and road conditions.
