What to do if the tires of an electric vehicle are separated from the hub

Electric vehicles are one of the important tools for our daily travel, and tires and wheels are an important part of electric vehicles. However, sometimes the tires of an electric car may detach from the hub, so what should we do?The following is an introduction to the treatment method after the separation of the tire and the hub of the electric vehicle.

1. Check the reason.

First of all, we need to check the reason why the tires of the electric vehicle are separated from the hub. Typically, the separation of EV tires from the wheel hub is caused by the following reasons:

1.Crash or crash: An electric vehicle is hit or crashed while driving, causing the tire to separate from the hub.

2.Long driving range: Electric vehicles have too long driving range and severe tire wear, resulting in less friction between the tire and the hub, resulting in separation.

3.Quality problems: There are quality problems in the tires or wheels of electric vehicles, such as defects formed during the production process or damage caused during use.

Different reasons require different approaches.

Second, the treatment method.

1.Slight separation.

If the EV tires are only slightly separated from the hub, we can try the following methods to fix it:

1) Use a crowbar to pry the tires and wheels of the electric vehicle apart, taking care not to damage other parts.

2) Clean the tires and wheels of mud and debris, especially the damaged parts.

3) Apply the appropriate amount of adhesive to the contact surface of the tire and the hub and reinstall them together.

4) Firmly press with your feet so that the tires are in close contact with the wheels.

5) Leave for a period of time to allow the adhesive to dry and solidify.

2.Severe separation.

If the EV tires are so detached from the wheels that they can't be repaired, we need to replace them with new tires or hubs. Before replacement, we need to determine the model and specifications of the electric vehicle in order to buy the right tires or wheels. After purchase, we can follow these steps to make a replacement:

1) Use a crowbar to remove the old tire or wheel hub from the electric vehicle, taking care not to damage other parts.

2) Clean the axles and tires or hubs of dirt and debris, especially the damaged parts.

3) Install the new tires or wheels to the axles, paying attention to the installation position and orientation.

4) Firmly press with your feet so that the tires are in close contact with the wheels.

5) Adjust the tire pressure of the electric vehicle and check whether there is air leakage.

6) Leave for a while to allow the new tires or wheels to acclimatize to the ambient temperature.

3. Preventive measures.

In order to avoid the situation of separation of the tires of electric vehicles from the hub, we can take the following precautions:

1.Regularly check the condition of the tires and wheels of the electric vehicle, and replace them in time if they are found to be worn or damaged.

2.Obey traffic rules while driving and avoid sharp acceleration, sudden braking, and sharp turns.

3.Do not park the electric vehicle in direct sunlight or extreme cold to avoid affecting the service life of the tires and wheels.

4.When buying an electric vehicle, it is necessary to choose electric vehicles and accessories produced by regular brands and manufacturers to ensure reliable quality.
