Does a flooded engine count as a water-damaged vehicle? Introduction to water-damaged vehicles: After a vehicle has been submerged in water, it is difficult to dry the water inside the seats and floor. When the vehicle is exposed to sunlight, the high temperature turns the interior into a steamer, and the excessive moisture can corrode electronic components through the floor and other areas. Hazards of water-damaged vehicles: Areas where water has entered are prone to short circuits in the electrical system and may even cause damage to the vehicle. The various adverse effects on the vehicle's components are most directly reflected in the engine and electronic equipment. There may be no immediate issues shortly after the flooding, but after two or three months, unexplained faults may start to appear one after another.
