The hazards of a flooded car are significant. After being submerged in water, the vehicle's electrical circuits can suffer severe damage. More details about flooded cars are as follows: 1. Overview: A flooded car refers to a vehicle that has been immersed in water, typically meaning the engine and transmission have been submerged, with the water level exceeding the wheels and body seats, and the vehicle's underbody components being in prolonged contact with water. The risk factor is very high, as the electrical circuits are prone to short circuits, fires, and other accidents. 2. Others: A 'flooded car' can be repaired to some extent, but even after repairs, there are serious hidden dangers. The longer the immersion time, the higher the probability of malfunctions, and it cannot be completely repaired.
