How to deal with a blistered car Can the blistered car be repaired

After the car is soaked in water, how to deal with it in order to minimize the failure rate in the later stage.

Flooded vehicle hazards.

Because there is some sand and gravel in the soaking truck, it is left in some gears or belts, so it will cause some parts to be easily damaged, and there will be some abnormal noises at the beginning. Under normal circumstances, the repair of a vehicle soaked in water is to first remove the seats, interior parts, and interior panels, drain the stagnant water and then clean the mud, and the engine should also be removed, and the electronic components should be checked, especially whether the computer motherboard is damaged. In fact, after the "soaking car" is repaired, it is like a "time bomb", problems may occur at any time, such as the engine suddenly stalls at high speed, the airbag can not be popped out at a critical moment or even popped out for no reason, etc., although such a car is cheap, but there are serious safety hazards in daily driving, so consumers had better not be greedy for cheap and buy "soaking car".

The dangers of flooded vehicles are enormous. If the motor vehicle is submerged in water, it is easy to cause rust of body parts, shorten the service life, and reduce safety performance. For example, flooded vehicles will cause corrosion and rust of the wires of motor vehicles, resulting in sudden stalling and spontaneous combustion of motor vehicles due to short circuits during driving, and the consequences are unimaginable.

In addition, the maintenance cost of flooded vehicles is very expensive, basically the maintenance cost of heavily flooded vehicles accounts for more than 50% of the car price, and insurance claims can be very difficult. Safety hazards.

The soaking car we often talk about can also be called a soaking car, which means that the water is submerged over the depth of the wheel reaches about one-third, because the bottom of the body is soaked in water for a long time, because the bottom of the motor vehicle is in contact with water for a long time, the degree of immersion is different in a large way.

For the soaking car, there can be three different levels to judge, if the water level exceeds the chassis of the car, we call this kind of car is a flooded car, if the water level exceeds the oil dipstick, it can be called a semi-soaked car, if the water level has exceeded the hood, or the dashboard panel surface, then it is called a full soaking car.

No matter what the reason is caused by the soaking car, there will be a great degree of hidden danger for safe driving, and the harm is also great, when the soaking time is longer, the higher the failure problem will occur, because the gear and belt will be covered by mud and sand, there is no way to deal with it, so it will cause more problems.

For motor vehicles, the longer the vehicle is immersed in water, many parts will be severely damaged by water immersion. This kind of soaking car can be seen as a non-ticking time bomb, and all kinds of problems can arise at any time. For example, there are many problems such as sudden stalling of the engine during high-speed driving, and the failure of the airbag to open in the event of a safety accident.

Cut off the power of the vehicle and unplug the battery in time; Be careful not to start the machinery and contact the trailer in time; While waiting for the trailer to arrive, you can check the degree of water immersion on your own and negotiate with the insurance company.

Cars are blistered, and the engine and electrical system are the most vulnerable. There are more than a dozen circuits in the car, which are usually under the carpet in the car. If you soak in water for too long, not only the circuit is easy to be damaged, but also the replacement will cost thousands of yuan.

After the vehicle is flooded, it is necessary to turn off the ignition, and remember that it must not be started again, otherwise the water will cause the crank bar to break, which is very easy to damage the engine, and the insurance company will generally not pay the claim. Remind the car owner: "After the car is flooded, even if the water is automatically discharged, you should go to the repair shop to check the various electrical components in the car."

A large amount of acid and alkali substances in heavy rain can also damage equipment such as electrical circuits on the car.

Generally speaking, there are three situations of vehicle soaking, the first is that only the chassis part of the vehicle is blistered, which does not hurt the car much, and the owner can rest assured. However, the second and third cases do belong to the soaking car, and this degree of soaking can already affect the safety performance of the car, so it is necessary to do a more detailed and comprehensive inspection of the car. This is mainly because rainwater is more corrosive, which will affect the function of electrical appliances in the car, which will directly affect the future use of the car.

The first point, the degree of water soaking, in general, we can divide the body soaking in water into two kinds, according to different situations, we have to deal with it accordingly, one is that the car is flooded when parking, if the maximum water level of the flooded does not exceed the tires, then the engine is generally not damaged.

If the water is more than half of the body, and the engine is already in danger, you should not start the car and wait until the situation allows. The second situation is that during the wading process, the flameout phenomenon occurs, and the engine is 100% flooded.

The second point, insurance, once the car is soaked in water, in the case of ensuring safety, the first thing you have to do is to apply for insurance, even if you do not buy wading insurance, you can go to normal insurance, you should remember to take pictures of the certificate at the same time as the insurance, here I need to remind you that after the car is soaked in water, you should not start the engine again, if there is a secondary injury to the engine, then the insurance company has the right not to compensate.

The third point, maintenance, after the vehicle is soaked in water, maintenance must be essential, if the water level is only to the floor, the engine at this time is generally no problem, at this time you only need to drive the car to a dry place, remove the seat cover carpet, and clean it thoroughly, as for the residual water stains in the car, we must wipe it dry with a cloth, and we must not wait for it to dry naturally. The next thing we have to do is to check whether the mechanical parts of the car are performing normally, and generally have to go to a regular repair shop to repair it, which is not too serious.

The more serious situation is in the process of wading, there was a stall, at this time the engine is basically into the water, at this time you must not start the engine again, after taking pictures to keep the certificate, contact the rescue, drag your car out of the wading area, the next is maintenance, this maintenance do not have to think, it must be more laborious.

The fourth point, to prevent soaking, many people have such a question, that is, after soaking in water maintenance, whether there will be problems in the future, which should be analyzed according to the severity of the soaking water, if the soaking is not very serious, the vehicle will have more or less "sequelae" in the future, which is inevitable, if the soaking is very serious, most owners will sell the car, so if we choose a second-hand car, we must be wary of soaking cars.

Call the insurance company as soon as possible**, don't start the fire.

How to deal with the soaking truck.

Insurance: Of course, the first thing is insurance, many car owners will ask, my car has not bought wading insurance, is the insurance useful? As long as it is static, that is, the vehicle parked there is not opened, such as parked in the parking lot, if it is flooded, basically all car owners will take out vehicle damage insurance, which is vehicle damage insurance, so the insurance company will make a claim.

Since under natural circumstances, the vehicle is damaged due to natural disasters such as rain and floods, the insurance company will be responsible for compensating the insurance company for the loss.

Sell the car: Sell the water wheel as soon as possible, don't wait until the car breaks down to sell, it will be difficult to sell, and the ** will be very low.

The impact of the car on the car after soaking in water is still relatively large, and some second-hand car sellers will not tell you the situation after the car is soaked in water, so we have to learn to distinguish whether it is a blister car or not.

It is possible to fix the car if it is blistered, but it is very expensive, personal advice. If you don't soak in too much water, you can still fix it, if you soak in too much water, I still don't recommend repairing.

It can be repaired, but the chance of problems in the future will be much greater.

The treatment method after the car is soaked in water is as follows:1. Turn off the power of the car as soon as possible. If the car is soaked in water, many parts will be burned out after the electricity is applied;

2. Put the gear of the car directly in neutral gear, and the soaked engine cannot be forcibly started, which will cause great damage to the engine;

3. Contact the 4S shop or the surrounding auto repair shop to find a trailer to tow the car away for repair;

4. Confirm with the service station staff that the vehicle has not been started by fire, and remind the staff not to start it during maintenance and write it on the maintenance order to confirm that it has not been started; 5. Let the insurance company verify the loss as soon as possible, and assist the maintenance personnel to take photos of the car and save it.

After the car is soaked in water, it should be turned off immediately, and it cannot be moved, so ask for help and send it to the repair shop for repair and maintenance.

First of all, you must carefully observe the degree of the car being blistered, if the water is not very deep, not more than two-thirds of the height of the car tires, that is, the water has not yet reached the exhaust port of the car, and can not pose a threat to the safety of the car, then quickly start the vehicle along the safe route and withdraw with confidence.

If the water has already entered the car through the exhaust port, remember not to try to start or turn the engine, and if it is still moving, turn off the engine immediately. Otherwise, it will cause serious deformation of the connecting rod of the car engine, and the more serious consequence is that it will often be denied by the insurance company.

If the car cannot move after being blistered, you should call the rescue ** as soon as possible and request rescue. Because the longer the soaking time, the more difficult it is to repair, and the higher the maintenance cost, so the soaked car should be towed to the maintenance plant for dismantling and cleaning as soon as possible.

At the same time as requesting help, you should call the insurance company** in time to report the insurance. If the vehicle is parked on the side of the road or in the underground garage and is blistered, even if there is no wading insurance, the insurance company will need to pay for the loss of the vehicle other than the engine according to the car damage insurance, but the engine damage can only be claimed if you purchase wading insurance.

After the maintenance of the engine and other equipment is completed, if the vehicle such as carpet and seat is soaked for too long, the material deformation, roughness and peculiar smell should also be replaced in time to prevent the breeding of bacteria. In addition, if the moisture is too heavy on the wiring harness under the carpet, it will also cause a short circuit in the wire. Therefore, it is best to replace it together to avoid the sequelae of soaking in water.

All electrical components need to be removed to check for damage.

All control units below the water level are replaced, all plugs are cleaned, and all interiors below are dried. If the water level floods the dashboard, it is advisable to change vehicles.

If it is not damaged, it can be dried and replaced.
