Where Do All Those Flood-Damaged Cars End Up Each Year?

[McCamille]

Most of them flow into the second-hand market. Here is some relevant information about flood-damaged cars: 1. Definition: Flood-damaged cars refer to vehicles that have been submerged in water, typically meaning the engine and transmission have been waterlogged, with the immersion depth exceeding the wheels and body seats, and the bottom components of the vehicle being in prolonged contact with water. Such vehicles pose significant risks, as their electrical systems are prone to short circuits, fires, etc. 2. Additional Information: Flood-damaged cars can be repaired to some extent, but even after repairs, they still harbor serious hidden dangers. The longer the immersion time, the higher the probability of malfunctions. This is similar to a watch falling into water—even if it is disassembled and dried, the watch will still malfunction and cannot be completely repaired.
