Mine was a puppy mill breeder for 6 years and she’s afraid of everything but slowly getting more relaxed. After two years, my son can pick her up without getting peed on (most of the time).
Her biggest trigger is hearing seat belts unclick. Her screeching is why I can’t leave her alone so she comes everywhere with me. My car has dog mode so she’s at 70F. But she hears that click and she’s screeching at over 100 db. Pretty loud for a 14 lb dog.

Yeah. :(
Mine loves car rides but gets motion sick in the car for similar reasons.
