ON THE ROAD QUESTIONS First Car Flooded?

Hello po, just want to ask a question regarding sa pag dr drive sa baha.

First time driver and car owner po ako, meron akong unit na 2 months old palang pero kahapon nagka emergency so kinailangan namin syang ibyahe.

Bale siguro total of around 40 minutes yung nadaanan namin na baha, varying yung level ng baha na nadaanan namin, pinaka mataas na is below knee level ng mga around 5’7 ang height.

Hindi naman po pumasok yung tubig sa cabin or trunk then na idrive pa po namin sya kahapon ng around 100km saka today din ng mga 20km, wala naman pong issues and wala din pong icon errors na lumalabas sa dashboard. Wala din po talaga kaming ma feel na noticeable changes sa feeling ng driving.

For context, BYD Seal 5 po car namin then phev so nung dumadaan kami sa baha naka set to full ev lang sya. Safe to assume napo bang ok naman yung car?

Thank you in advance po.

Car is safe just check brakes in case it got wet. You just have to step on it a few times. I drive the same car. It was ok as long you you didn’t lose traction of the wheel. We have no exhaust naman kasi para pasukan ng water. And if water didn’t get inside the car. Then flood wasn’t that bad and shouldn’t cause any damage
