My brother just told us that he is not sure if his car will be well again. It seems that there has been some flooding in his area, and he wasn't able to move his car to higher ground. I wonder if a car would work well again after being underwater for a couple of days.

I guess it would depend. Today's cars have computers in them, that would probably have to be replaced. Plus, you'd have to get all the water out of every part of the engine. It would take a lot of work, I think.

It would definitely have to dry out completely before it should even be attempted, but there are definitely no guarantees when it's been that wet for that long!

Most insurance companies will simply write the vehicle off, in such instances: it's the more cost and time effective option, in most cases.

If there's a mechanic in him, yep, it's possible... unless it's salt water, and then it's a completely different tale to tell.

The insurance is sending someone to check the car this coming week. I told my brother that they might just call it a total loss. I am just hoping they give him a good amount. The car is five years old, but it was in great condition, until the flood that is.
