Does it feel like every single time you go out to your car you discover a new door ding? It’s easy to find yourself in horror; sitting at your desk day-in and day-out imagining all the crazy fools who are opening their doors too wide, causing little niffs in your paint job. Once your visions of success cease, you realize the safety of your vehicle is only a distant dream; unless you can follow these simply steps below and protect your vehicle for good!
Immediately upon entering the parking lot, survey the parking lot for the coveted end spot. If you can park your spicy little Ford Fusion in the end spot you will decrease your chance of door dings by 50%.
Always park straight by pulling your vehicle directly in between the lines on either side, you can better ensure that the next person who pulls in next to you won’t be too close. If there is already a car parked over the line when you get there, be sure you don’t park in response to their park. Park straight or once the bad parker leaves, you will look like the idiot.
If you pull into a space and notice that there are child booster seats in the car next to you, pull out and find a new spot. Booster seats usually force the parent to open the door all the way to get their child in and buckled. The parent has to lean over pretty far; which can cause the door to swing open and damage your precious Ford Fusion in a Peloponnesian minute.
