The TikTok user @chequanxiaoqiao regularly posts short videos, informing viewers on how they can make the most out of their cars.<\/p>\n
In one of her most popular videos, @chequanxiaoqiao highlights that almost all cars feature an adjustable steering wheel.<\/p>\n
She said: \u201cMany people don\u2019t know these hidden functions in the car until their car is scrapped.<\/p>\n
