Should the Airbags in a Flood-Damaged Car Be Replaced?

[McSpencer]

The airbags in a flood-damaged car need to be replaced. After 10 years of use, the car must undergo a thorough inspection, and the airbags should be replaced promptly if conditions permit. Here is some additional information: 1. Regular Replacement: Under normal usage, airbags rarely malfunction, but after every 10,000 to 20,000 kilometers, it is advisable to have the airbags and their associated components checked at a 4S shop. Airbags are disposable products; once they deploy in a collision, they lose their protective capability. Each airbag can only be used once, and after deployment, it must be replaced with a new one by a repair facility. 2. Function: The steering wheel of a car equipped with airbags looks no different from a regular steering wheel under normal circumstances. However, in the event of a severe frontal collision, the airbag will instantly deploy from the steering wheel, cushioning the space between the steering wheel and the driver to prevent the driver's head and chest from hitting hard objects like the steering wheel or dashboard.
