What Are the Classification Levels of Flood-Damaged Vehicles?

[WyattLee]

Water-damaged vehicle classification standards are as follows: 1. Vehicle chassis: Water level just reaches the vehicle chassis, with minimal impact on interior electrical equipment. 2. Wheels: Water level reaches halfway up the wheels. For sedans with lower body height, the water level inside may affect seat adjustment motors, heating, ventilation, and other electrical components. 3. Vehicle seats: Water almost completely submerges the tires. At this point, the interior water level will fully immerse the seat cushions and center console area, while affecting numerous electrical devices. 4. Engine: Water reaches the engine hood, exceeding the seat surface level and submerging headlights and taillights. The instrument panel is already soaked, with most of the engine submerged and water entering the trunk.
