Is it possible to buy a flood-damaged car when purchasing a new vehicle?
1 Answers
Generally, you won't purchase a flood-damaged car when buying a new vehicle. Below are some precautions for new cars: 1. Drive cautiously: Warm up the car for 1 minute before departure, which is beneficial not only during the break-in period but also in the long run. Keep the RPM relatively low; while civilian vehicles typically have a maximum RPM of 6000+, maintain it below 4000 RPM during the break-in period. Shift gears frequently, limit speed, and avoid frequent braking. 2. Initial maintenance: During the break-in period, regularly check the engine oil, coolant, and battery electrolyte levels, and top them up immediately if they are low. 3. Proper fueling: Try to use higher-quality gasoline, and ensure the engine oil used meets or exceeds the manufacturer's specified grade.
