Engine, transmission, all vehicle fluids, and bearing components. Below is relevant information: 1. Definition of a Flood-Damaged Vehicle: A flood-damaged vehicle refers to a car that has been submerged in water, typically meaning the wiring harness has been soaked, with water immersion depth exceeding one-third of the wheel height, and the vehicle's underbody components have been in prolonged contact with water. Based on the extent of water immersion, it can be classified into three levels. 2. Water-Damaged Vehicle: When the water level exceeds the vehicle's chassis, it is called a water-damaged vehicle. 3. Semi-Flooded Vehicle: When the water level exceeds the oil dipstick, it is termed a semi-flooded vehicle. 4. Fully Flooded Vehicle: When the water level exceeds the engine hood or the dashboard panel, it is called a fully flooded vehicle.
