When considering car insurance, there is indeed a waterlogging coverage option. It's an add-on to the comprehensive car insurance, specifically covering damages caused by water ingress, such as major repairs needed after the engine gets flooded. As an ordinary car owner, last summer during heavy rains, my garage was flooded, and my car was nearly totaled. Fortunately, I had purchased this coverage in advance. During the claims process, the insurance company confirmed it was a natural disaster, and I didn't have to pay for the parts replacement. When buying insurance, proactively ask your insurer to add waterlogging coverage—the additional cost is minimal, and it's a worthwhile investment in areas prone to rainy seasons. Remember, don't force your way through when water levels exceed tire height, as it may be considered human error and not covered. Regularly review your policy and update the terms to ensure comprehensive coverage.
