What is the extent of a Level 3 water-damaged vehicle?
1 Answers
Level 3 water-damaged vehicle refers to severe flooding, where water reaches above the dashboard or even submerges the entire car. Below are the relevant details: 1. Flood Level 1: Water has just reached the vehicle's chassis, potentially causing dampness on the floor, but the likelihood of significant water ingress is low, and the impact on interior electrical equipment is minimal. 2. Flood Level 2: Water reaches halfway up the wheels. Due to the vehicle's incomplete sealing, water begins to enter the interior. For lower-bodied sedans, the water level inside may affect components such as seat adjustment motors, heating, ventilation, and other electrical parts.
