What to Pay Attention to After Driving Out of Deep Water?
1 Answers
It may cause short circuits in the car's wiring, poor contact, water ingress into the engine, and reduced lifespan, necessitating a vehicle inspection. The following are the impacts of driving through deep water: 1. Chassis corrosion: If the water is not too deep, just above the chassis and entering the cabin, it can cause corrosive damage to the fixed bolts at the bottom of the vehicle compartment used to connect external attachments, weakening their tensile fastening ability and, in severe cases, causing detachment. 2. Decreased body tightness: Sealing strips and mud-resistant rubber rings are attacked by sand and mud, oxidizing and hardening, leading to accelerated wear. While the vehicle may be fine when stationary, unusual noises or wind noise are likely to occur when driving.
