Is It Safe as Long as the Vehicle Doesn't Stall When Driving Through Water?
1 Answers
As long as the vehicle doesn't stall and restart midway, there shouldn't be any major issues. Here's some relevant information about water-damaged vehicles: 1. Definition: A water-damaged vehicle refers to one that has been submerged in water, typically meaning the engine and transmission have been soaked, with water levels exceeding the wheels and seats, and the vehicle's underbody components have been in prolonged contact with water. Such vehicles pose significant risks, as the electrical systems are prone to short circuits and potential fires. 2. Insurance: There are two types of insurance related to water damage: the most common is comprehensive auto insurance, and the other is called special engine loss insurance, commonly known as flood insurance.
