Summary
Hot summer temperatures can turn a parked vehicle into a burn hazard within minutes. A Family Handyman report explains that steering wheels, dashboards, seat-belt buckles, leather seats, and metal trim can reach temperatures high enough to cause painful skin burns after prolonged sun exposure. Dark-colored interiors and direct sunlight make the problem worse. The article advises drivers to test hot surfaces before touching them, use sunshades, crack windows when safe, and cover seats or steering wheels to reduce heat buildup. Wearing light clothing and parking in shaded areas also help protect passengers, especially children, older adults, and pets, from heat-related injuries.
