Their owners trade them in quickly after water damage, knowing there will likely be gremlins , and without declaring the damage to the dealer that takes the vehicle in trade or with the collusion of the party taking the vehicles.
He suggests looking for humidity under carpeting, compartment covers, and around anchor points for seats, seatbelts and tie-downs. Voltage receptacles are another tell-tale place to look. “A vehicle that was underwater will also have mud, dirt and sand in the lowest-lying places, such as under the dashboard and in other storage compartments in minivans and SUVs. Brakes will be unusually rusty.
