Why do i get a electric shock off my car,?
Answers:
If you're talking about when you stop the car and get out, it's static from your clothing and shoes dragging across the upholstery.
My car used to bite the )*@@ out of me until I found a product called "Static Guard." Look in the laundry supplies area at the store, it's in a spray can. Hose down the seat and floor of the car. You need to spray a lot of it, but it'll last a year if you do. Use like half the can for the front two seats and floors.
am guessing it is dry and the dust blowing by builds up a static charge
static electricity. ever rubbed your shoes on carpet to build static? thats what happens when you rub your butt across your seat when you get out. if at a gas station, make sure you touch your car after getting out to "ground" out the static before touching the fuel pump.
Its static electricity earthing to you when you touch it
Unplug it from the mains
You need to check the earth wires,
You might need to put a good earth wire on your stereo!

We had the same problem and it turned out it was my husband's plastic coat that caused it. We got the car checked out thinking it was a bad earth somewhere but it wasn't. We have since brought the anti static strips for the car from Halfords and that works a treat.
stop licking the battery
It's nothing more than static electricity a ground strap will get rid of it,you attach it to the frame and it drags along the road.
A common problem this. Remember that essentially your car is completely insulated from the road by four round lumps of rubber and static will build up in the car. As you step out on to the road you complete the circuit for the currrent to earth itself. There is no easy answer to this but the best solution I have found (since the most sensitive nerves in the body are at the ends of your fingers) is to hold on to the door metal as you get out and then put your feet down. Do it the other way round and you feel the shock.
This is going to sound silly . but a motor trader once pointed out to me . Use a good fabric softener in your washing ,,,, you will find it does the trick .
