Drivers will destroy their cars if they maintain these 5 habits.

No matter how expensive a car is, if the driver does not have proper usage habits, it will reduce the life of the car. Neglecting regular maintenance, ignoring warning lights, changing gears while driving... are habits that cause serious damage to the car.

1. Neglecting regular maintenance

After a certain distance of about 5,000 km, manufacturers often recommend that customers bring their cars for regular maintenance to ensure that all parts are always in the best working condition, at least the solutions in the car such as coolant, engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, air filter...

2. Ignore the warning lights

The warning lights on the dashboard do not come on for no reason, there is definitely something wrong with the car, but many drivers think that it is normal. But there are errors that greatly affect the car, for example, if the cooling system leaks, the engine is not optimally cooled and becomes overheated.

3. Shifting gears while driving

The transmission system is one of the most complex and expensive parts of the car, so if an accident occurs, it will cost the owner a lot of money. In fact, accidentally or intentionally shifting the gear lever to the reverse position while the car is still rolling forward.

4. Drive on demand

Many young and even old drivers like to drive their cars on the street like they are on a racetrack. This is the way to step on the gas pedal very quickly and then suddenly brake when encountering a red light or an obstacle. This type of driving does not destroy the car immediately, but it is the cause of the engine, transmission and especially the brake system to deteriorate quickly. Some of the consequences of this type of driving are obvious oil leaks, broken welds, joints or rapid mechanical wear.

5. Do not change tires

Many people think that cars with 4 tires make the car balanced, safe and not easy to fall over like motorbikes, so they do not pay much attention to the quality of the tires. With tires that are too worn, the car can easily encounter risks such as tire explosions, loss of grip on slippery roads.
