If your car can no longer cope with all the things that you have to transport, then you can, of course, buy a bigger car, or you can try to get by with a roof rack. Recommendations for its installation and use.
Instructions
Step 1
When choosing the type of car roof rack and related equipment, you should pay attention to the weight of the structure, because the roof of a car is usually able to withstand a certain weight, which cannot be exceeded.
Step 2
Choose models that are at least outwardly capable of withstanding our climate. Traces of rust will not add beauty to the trunk or the car.
Step 3
It is also worth remembering that the load on the roof of your car, due to aerodynamic features, increases fuel consumption and produces additional noise.
Step 4
To avoid accidentally damaging the load on the roof, observe height restrictions when entering underground parking lots, garages, and when driving under tree branches, for example, when parking in the yard.
Step 5
Check the reliability of the entire structure more often, and also resort to the help of additional devices for securing and transporting cargo: tie-down belts, ropes and restraints.
Step 6
Keep in mind that the handling of the vehicle with the load on top changes slightly, so drive calmly, avoid sudden maneuvers and be careful.
