What are the differences between a flood-damaged car and a normal car?

[LeGrace]

The differences between a flood-damaged car and a normal car include: 1. Details vary: After refurbishment, flood-damaged cars have different details compared to normal cars. For example, the seats—typically, higher-end cars come with leather seats, but after being soaked, these seats become unusable and are usually replaced with ordinary ones. Another example is the dashboard; normal cars generally don’t have their dashboards replaced. If you notice that the dashboard looks exceptionally new or as good as new, it might be a sign of a flood-damaged car, as water stains on the dashboard of such cars are often hard to clean completely. 2. Maintenance records differ: Check the car’s maintenance records at a 4S shop to see if there are any engine repair records. If there are, it usually indicates that the car has been in a major accident or suffered flood damage.
