Arab Weather - With the entry of the rainy season during the fall and winter seasons, car problems abound, due to the cold weather that affects the vital and mechanical factors of the car, as well as the exposure of cars to rainwater that causes many malfunctions.
Traffic accidents may increase because some cars are not well prepared for driving in rainy weather, in which the roads become slippery, and visibility is almost non-existent.
To avoid this, here are a set of quick and effective tips to prepare your car for the rainy season:
The stability and stability of the car on the road depends primarily on the quality of the tires and their freedom from signs of wear and tear, and while the problem of minor wear in the car tires is hardly noticeable in dry weather, it will constitute a serious problem in the case of rainy weather, in which cars become more prone to slipping. On the road, and for that, car tires must be checked carefully to make sure that there are no signs of wear or tear, even simple in any of the car tires, also taking into account the age of the tires and if they used to walk on rough roads, then you may have to replace them with others .
Car windshield wipers are the second most used parts or tools in the car during rainy weather, so it is recommended that the driver inspect them carefully and make sure that they are not worn out and work well and quickly to remove water droplets that obstruct vision from the windshield of the car.
Also, be sure to replace the windshield wipers that leave traces of lines on the front windshield of the car, because they will not completely solve the problem of blurred vision during rain. It is also preferable to use a special cleaning fluid for car glass to clean the windshield and car windows and not only use water, as the windshield wipers and water alone will not They can clean the windshield if it is very dirty.
One of the main causes of accidents during rain is a malfunction in the car brakes. Rainy weather usually causes the car to slip on the road or increase its speed, and stopping on rainy roads requires a longer distance and good brakes, so be sure to check the brakes The car is in preparation for the rainy season, especially if you notice making sharp sounds or if it takes some time to start working.
Car lights or lights play a major role in increasing the rate of visibility, and therefore it is necessary to ensure that the headlights and stop lights work as they should, especially during the winter months, when visibility on the roads often decreases due to fog or strong wind waves and rain. Car headlights alert cars on the road to the presence of other cars, especially during bad weather when visibility is almost non-existent.
The battery, especially the liquid one, is one of the parts of the car that is most affected by the weather, so it is necessary to visit the specialists in maintaining the batteries to ensure the power of charging and to provide them with distilled water if it is less than the permissible limit.
The ventilation holes and the air conditioning fans work to expel the saturated air out of the cabin and prevent water vapor from condensing on the car's windshield from the inside, which allows for better visibility, so you must ensure the effectiveness of these parts before the coming of winter.
These preparations are sprayed on hard surfaces to facilitate the sliding of water on them. Spraying this type of preparations on the windshield and mirrors in the car helps to ensure that rainwater slides so as not to leave a trace on it.
