Heavy rain has little impact on cars, but it is still necessary to pay attention to waterproofing, otherwise the car may malfunction and become a flooded vehicle. The following is a detailed introduction about flooded vehicles: Overview: A flooded vehicle refers to a vehicle that has been soaked in water, generally meaning that the engine and transmission have been submerged, with the water depth exceeding the wheels and body seats, and the bottom components of the body have been in prolonged contact with water. The risk factor is very high, as the electrical circuits can easily cause short circuits, fires, and other accidents. Others: "Flooded vehicles" can be repaired to a certain extent, but even after repair, there are serious hidden dangers. The longer the soaking time, the higher the probability of malfunctions, and they cannot be completely repaired.
