How to deal with vehicles flooded correct?

The arrival of a strong typhoon mangosteen, heavy rains accompanied by strong winds which 16 led to a lot of cars parked outside the flooded water over the tire, flows into the car, is more serious, the car probably will be a problem. How we should deal with this? With you to talk in detail steps of the process, we hope to help you.

First step: Contact the insurance company "report"

If you wake up at night and found his car was blisters, remember the first time to notify the insurance company "report", to communicate with the insurance company, so they sent staff to the scene to carry out investigation.

Step Two: vehicle battery power off

While waiting for the insurance company survey personnel, the cutting of the vehicle battery, in general, is to disconnect the battery positive and negative electrodes.

Because in the trailer, we need to use the key to unlock the steering wheel, turn the key in time, will power appliances, electrical energization to the car, but the car after the appliance is flooded, once powered on, it will burn electronic yuan devices.

Here we must note: the flooded powered cars do not insert the key, to disconnect the battery power.

The third step: the transmission gear in neutral and

Because the car once soaked in water, do not resort to a fire, especially more than the depth of the tire, remember that it must not ignition, the important thing is not to say eight times too many.

The reason is that the gearbox in neutral, if we move the trailer to the car when the engine starts easy to misuse, if this time the engine is started, and that the basic rhythm is scrapped.

Here we must note: Do not flood the car with a key to start the ignition, shift into a neutral position.

Step 4: Drag a vehicle service station as soon as possible

Because, in the insurance claims process, insurance companies will determine whether the owner of the vehicle in time for the correct and timely implementation of the rescue. So, it was found after the car was flooded, and the race against time to try to put the car onto the trailer called the car repair station. After all, the car in the water too long can also cause damage to electronic components, also detrimental to the maintenance ah.

Called the trailer the way, I suggest that insurance companies send a tow truck.

Step Five: Maintenance and repair station to confirm handover issues

To tow that car repair stations, has just completed half of the work, this time do not think that bin down. This time just entering the most critical period.

And before all the possibilities for proper operation, make sure the staff is good at this step with the service station and make a written proof material. There are so few notes:

1, first of all, with service station staff confirmed that the vehicle does not start the ignition off, and alert staff when the service do not start. And written on the work order, make sure he did not start.

2, if you can, find a trusted car repair master himself, to issue one check the car.

3, be approved as soon as possible so that the insurance company losses. And to assist maintenance personnel, to retain the car to take pictures. If the insurance company is temporarily unable to timely home, in consultation with their ability to take pictures with the approved preliminary loss retained manner. In this way, the pits can be carried out as soon as possible for the car dismantling and cleaning, after all the water on the car is retained for too long will make the car suffered greater losses.

Step Six: insurance companies approved specific compensation issues

Issued by the insurance company approved maintenance materials and specific compensation issues.

Tips for car owners: Although flood cars encountered this unfortunate thing, but if done properly, is the midst of sadness, loss to a minimum.
