Hot weather can damage and reduce the life of the paint and interior of your car. Please refer to the following ways to protect your car well.
Always park your car in the shade.
Car owners should park their cars indoors or in the shade whenever possible. This is the best way to protect the car's paint and also reduces heat from the sun that can damage the interior components.
Exposing your car to hot weather like today will reduce the lifespan of any car model.
Use windshield sunshade
Too much sunlight can damage and ruin the dashboard and steering wheel of the car. Therefore, to protect the interior of the car, car owners should use a windshield sunshade to reduce the radiation of sunlight.
Clean car interior regularly
Dirt combined with high temperatures can cause fading and damage to the interior of the car. Therefore, car owners should clean the interior of the car regularly to avoid possible damage.
Consider using tinted windows
Owners may consider installing tinted windows as an option if their vehicle is frequently parked in the sun. The front windshield and two front windows should allow 70% of light to pass through, while the windshield and two rear windows should only use 25%.
Check tire pressure regularly
When the car is driven continuously in hot weather, the tire pressure will increase due to the increased temperature. And high tire pressure, contact with hot road surface, increased friction combined with high speed will make the tire easily explode. That is why car owners should regularly check the tires at least once a month to ensure the tires are operating properly.
Use car paint protection film
To protect the exterior of the car from the sun, car owners can invest in a paint protection film that does not affect the beauty of the car. According to experts, this invisible film can also protect the car from cracks, sand dust and small scratches.
Check coolant regularly
The coolant in a car is used up faster in hot weather conditions. This increases the risk of damage to the car. If the coolant level is low, the car owner should add more coolant and especially should not open the hood when the car has just been running and the engine is still hot.
Do not leave phone or alcohol sanitizer in the car
After the COVID-19 pandemic, many people have the habit of washing their hands with sanitizer every time they get in the car and often equip their cars with a few bottles of this solution. However, experts recommend that you should not leave alcohol in the car because the hot sun and high temperatures can cause this solution to catch fire, causing great harm to your car.
Electronic devices left in the car in the sun can cause fire or explosion.
In addition, you should not leave electronic devices such as phones, power banks, cans of carbonated drinks, spray bottles of cosmetics, lighters, etc. in the car during hot weather. Under the impact of high temperatures (up to 60 degrees Celsius), these objects pose unpredictable dangers.
