Cars break down for reasons that often start small. Everyday habits that feel normal might secretly be doing damage, and your car’s too polite to complain, until one day, it leaves you stranded in a parking lot.

Your childhood road trips probably included things that would shock a modern cop. Standing through the sunroof felt like freedom. Sleeping stretched across the backseat seemed practical. Then researchers started studying crashes, and everything changed.
