Can Flood-Damaged Cars Still Be Used?
1 Answers
Flood-damaged vehicles suffer severe harm to their electrical circuits, which affects later usage, but they can still be used after repairs. Below is an introduction to the classification of flood-damaged vehicles: 1. Flood Level 1: Water just reaches the vehicle chassis, and the floor may get damp, but the likelihood of significant water ingress is low, with minimal impact on interior electrical equipment. 2. Flood Level 2: Water reaches halfway up the wheels. Due to the vehicle's incomplete sealing, water begins to enter the interior. For lower sedans, the water level inside may affect the seat adjustment motors and electrical components like heating and ventilation. 3. Flood Level 3: Water almost completely submerges the tires. At this point, the interior water level will fully immerse the seat cushions and center console area, affecting a large number of electrical devices.
