How long does it take for a submerged car chassis to be affected?

[LailaRose]

There will be an impact once the car chassis is submerged to the point of accumulating water, but there is no fixed time frame because the drainage efficiency varies among different vehicles. Effects: Generally, water entering the chassis does not cause significant issues. However, if the water level rises above half of the tire, it is important to brake first after exiting the water to drain the moisture and prevent any impact on braking performance. Chassis Water Accumulation: While there is always a possibility of water entering the chassis, cars are designed to drain water on their own. If water accumulates, it is necessary to clean the chassis. During the cleaning process, special attention should be paid to rust prevention, as accumulated water is most likely to cause rusting.
