What Happens When a Car is Submerged in Water?

[DelGideon]

When a car is submerged in water, it generally causes severe damage to the vehicle. The hazards are as follows: 1. Although we can make repairs to a certain extent, the repaired vehicle may still have safety risks. 2. A water-damaged car is highly prone to rusting of body components, shortening its lifespan and reducing safety performance. 3. Water immersion can lead to corrosion and rusting of the vehicle's wiring, causing the car to suddenly stall or even catch fire due to short circuits while driving, with potentially catastrophic consequences. 4. The repair costs for water-damaged vehicles are extremely high. In cases of severe water ingress, the repair expenses may exceed 50% of the car's original value.
