Drivers carry a lot of stuff in the trunk. Usually they put a liter can of motor oil and a “washing machine” to top up in the “hozblok”. Large cans of water are often also transported. All this is in no way stuck, so the luggage often flies around corners and spills. The AvtoVzglyad portal tells what sad consequences this can lead to for the wallet and health.
Plain water can lead to the car being serviced and repaired. In addition, the breakdown and cost of the work will unpleasantly surprise you. Take, for example, the popular Mazda CX-5 crossover. The car of the first generation has a large trunk of the correct square shape. Under the floor there is a dokatka, which increases the usable volume even more. But there is a nuance.
In this trunk, the breather of the four-wheel drive electromagnetic clutch is brought out through the hose. In addition, it is mounted flush in the right-hand niche of the compartment. And it is below the ground floor level. Therefore, accidentally spilled water from a can can enter the coupling through the breather and easily finish an expensive assembly. In this case, the clutch will begin to make noise, like a grinder, and loud.
When we talk about motor oil, it doesn’t have a strong and pungent smell, so if the canister falls over and the contents spill out, it takes quite a while for the driver to notice. The grease is absorbed into the material of the trunk lining, dries, so it is very difficult to remove it, even with the help of solvents. And if you use petrol, the whole interior will smell. This could soon cause problems for the traffic police. The sentry will sniff and decide that the car has serious leaks in the fuel system. Therefore, stains in the trunk will remain for a long time. It’s easier to buy a new rug and throw the old one away.
Continue. Winter washer fluid will also cause a number of problems. It contains isopropyl alcohol and this substance is considered toxic and has a third hazard class. The alcohol content in the composition of the “washing machine” can reach 75%.
Already at 20 degrees of heat, alcohol begins to actively evaporate. And if the car has a hatchback, then the fumes soon fill the entire interior. We do not recommend getting into the car without airing the car, because the driver may get a headache, his eyes will become red with irritation. Asthma patients in particular suffer from alcohol fumes.
Methyl alcohol, which is poured into cheap windshield washer fluids, is even more dangerous. It doesn’t have such a strong smell, so the driver doesn’t feel uncomfortable at first. But over time, prolonged inhalation of vapors will lead to headaches or nausea.
