Man accused of flying from New Jersey to Jacksonville to attack man over online gaming dispute to appear in courtWe all know the feeling of getting into a car that’s been parked outside on a hot day, the inside is stifling and uncomfortable and you want a quick cooldown.
Despite what you might think, this isn’t the time to use your car’s automatic start. That’s according to Consumer Reports’ car expert. This pulls cold air to the back of the car. If you have passengers in the back seat, turn off recirculation mode so the air in the back doesn’t get stale and hot. Another tip: If you’re stuck in stop-and-go traffic on your way to the beach and have a newer car with an auto start-stop system, you may want to turn it off.
