Can a Car Engine Still Be Used After Being Submerged in Water?

[JasperAnn]

Car engines cannot be used after being submerged in water. Introduction to water-damaged vehicles: Water-damaged vehicles refer to cars that have been soaked in water, typically involving the engine and transmission being submerged, with water levels exceeding the wheels and body seats. These are vehicles where underbody components have been in prolonged contact with water. Such cars pose significant risks, as their electrical systems are prone to short circuits and fires. Hazards of water-damaged vehicles: Components are highly susceptible to damage. The engine may suddenly stall. Airbags may fail to deploy during critical moments or even deploy unexpectedly. They are highly likely to cause body parts to rust, shortening the vehicle's lifespan and reducing safety performance.
