Does a car have any impact after being repaired from stalling in water?
1 Answers
After a car stalls in water and is repaired, it may have the following impacts: 1. The engine may experience insufficient power and shaking issues; 2. The high-voltage ignition system may become damp or short-circuited due to water ingress; 3. Water may enter the exhaust pipe; 4. Residual moisture can prevent the brake discs and brake pads from fully engaging, leading to loss of braking power; 5. Debris can easily accumulate in the chassis gaps, causing rust; 6. Fog may form inside the headlights, affecting light transmission; 7. The wiring harness and circuit connections in the engine compartment may get wet and cause short circuits. The recommended steps to take after a car stalls in water are: 1. Do not attempt to restart the engine; push the car to a location where it does not obstruct traffic; 2. Close all doors and windows and wait for assistance.
