But if you haven’t been using your car much lately, you should be aware of what could be happening to your car while you’re not using it..
1. Battery Charge Loss
Your car is still working even when you’re not using it, just like a laptop, smart phone or smart watch. Over time you battery can burn out and die.
2. Fluids Going Stale
Brake fluid, power steering fluid, oil are all fluids needed to keep your car running smoothly. Cars that sit around can lead to these fluids going stale and pooling.
3. Tyres With Flat Spots
Just like how furniture puts flat spots in the carpet if left sitting in one place too long, the same can happen to car tyres creating a dint. They also loose pressure when sitting too long.
4. You Forgot Your Bills
Has your car’s registration or insurance come due but you’ve forgotten to pay it? We’ve been hearing this a lot!
5. Damage To Paint
Tree sap and bird poo when left sitting around on your car for too long can cause permanent damage to your cars paint.
