How to check flooding difference
A car that has fallen into the sea or a lake, or that has been submerged in water and water has entered the lower part of the car, is called a flooded car. 좋은뉴스
Since cars are made with precision using electronics and metal, they are incompatible with water, so once submerged, you never know when something will go wrong again.
Usually, the route to purchase a used car is through a dealer, but it is not easy for ordinary citizens to find out if the car you want to buy is not directly informed that it is a submerged car.
There are ways to check whether there is a flooded car on your own, such as pulling out the seat belt to the end and checking for odor and dirt, but it is difficult to find traces after a long time has passed or after cleaning.
That’s why it’s good to find out through Car 365 and Car History, which can check more accurate information.
In this article, we will look at how to check for a flooded vehicle through Auto 365, which provides various information in addition to flooding, such as vehicle maintenance, inspection, and accident history.
To protect your precious money and safety, please take a moment to check that there are no problems before purchasing a used car.

Notice
Even if you use the flooded vehicle confirmation inquiry method discussed above, it is not possible to find out 100% of the abnormality.
This is because no record will be left if you falsified when you first registered or if you paid for the flood damage at your own expense.
Therefore, when purchasing a used car, it is recommended to use a business trip service accompanied by an expert or to have an inspection performed by a company that specializes in vehicle diagnosis.
It will cost extra, but we recommend that you check it out to prevent further damage.
