Stalling or not is not an absolute indicator. It is recommended to conduct an inspection. If the car didn't stall, it indicates the water wading wasn't too severe. Check the air filter, fuel filter, and battery for any signs of water ingress or moisture. Replace them promptly if necessary. Also, inspect whether the transmission has taken in water. If so, replace all the lubricating oil. Additional information: 1. Do not restart immediately if the car stalls unexpectedly: If the car stalls unexpectedly in water, do not attempt to restart it immediately. Instead, take measures to tow the car to a safe location with less water as soon as possible. Water entering the engine is a very serious issue. Water can enter through the air filter into the intake valve and then into the cylinder block via the intake pipe. Under no circumstances should you try to restart the engine at this point. 2. Remove brake pad moisture promptly: After wading through water, it is essential to remove moisture from the brake pads promptly, especially for vehicles with drum brake systems. Failure to do so may result in loss of braking power after wading, leading to severe hazards or accidents.

Is it safe to buy a used car with deployed airbags?

It is possible to buy a used car with deployed airbags, as long as the body structure and engine are not affected. However, airbag designs and settings vary across different car models, and collisions of varying severity can trigger airbag deployment. The key is to assess the actual situation, as airbags can be repaired or replaced. Below is an explanation of how airbags work: When sensors detect a collision, the gas generator triggers ignition, causing the airbag to inflate either by producing nitrogen or releasing compressed nitrogen to fill the airbag. As the passenger comes into contact with the airbag, it absorbs the energy from the collision through cushioning, thereby protecting the passenger.

What Are the Types of Suspension Systems?

Suspension types can be divided into two main categories: independent suspension and non-independent suspension. Independent suspension mainly includes: double-wishbone suspension, double A-arm suspension, multi-link suspension, MacPherson strut suspension, etc. Non-independent suspension mainly includes: multi-leaf spring suspension, torsion beam suspension, leaf spring non-independent suspension, coil spring non-independent suspension, and air spring non-independent suspension. Independent suspension refers to each wheel having its own elastic suspension system, operating independently without affecting each other. Non-independent suspension means the wheels do not have a relatively independent structure and are integrated, characterized by the inability to independently filter bumps, where movement of one wheel affects the other.
