and sometimes flood damage might go unreported, for instance somebody might’ve driven their car into deep water and then fixed it themselves without reporting anything.
Probably the worst damage would be electrical issues. Consider that most cars today have computer controlled engine parts, plus anti-theft, modules that control lighting, auto headlamps, etc. Most of those systems are not designed to be submersed in water. This can cause all kinds of malfunctions down the road. Plus there could be hidden body corrosion, mold in seats/carpeting, silt or sand in internal engine parts. Most professionals/car site say to avoid flood vehicles like the plague.
@artfuldodgersite what kind of damage does the water do to the car? few months back I was about to purchase a vehicle at 70% of its retail price, yes it was salvaged and flooded. It worked pretty well. It was clean a beautiful. But I was ultimately deterred from buying it because it was flooded. Now that i think back, i feel I should have bought. So, what’s so bad with the flood when the car works and runs normally? is there “hidden damage” that remains hidden even after thorough inspection?
Actually, you can’t fully trust the vehicle history reports mentioned in the story. Each state has its own rules as far as what information goes along with the cars title(salvaged/totaled,flood,etc.), and few of these car fact/history document companies stand 100% behind their report if the car you purchased has problems they didn’t catch. An easy check for flood damage, pop out backseat/turn it over (rust/stains). Also, pull up carpeting in floor pan/trunk area – look for rust/stains.
