How does short-distance driving and frequent engine restarts in Pakistani cities affect the life of Changan Kalam’s starter motor?

City traffic leads to more frequent use of the starter. Is this extra wear reducing its lifespan prematurely?

Short trips increase:

Number of start cycles per day

Heat buildup in the motor and solenoid

Starter teeth wear from frequent engagement with the flywheel

➡️ The starter never gets time to cool down between uses, shortening lifespan significantly in congested traffic areas.
