00:00Did your place get flooded and your car got submerged? That's an additional problem, especially when it comes to expenses.
00:07Here are some tips you need to know about the first news of Katrina Son.
00:14Not just one, but the cars of Francis Aureliado got submerged twice in the flood. The first time was in Baguio, Ondoy.
00:23When I left the car, after a few hours, my officemates called me and asked if my car was broken.
00:30It took him three days to get the car out of the parking lot and get it cleaned.
00:36We changed the oil three times and then they said my computer box was broken, so I had to go to Quezon City to look for a replacement.
00:44He still didn't feel right. There were always problems.
00:49It took him two weeks to get the car repaired.
00:53The car's price was almost the same as the cost of the repair, so he decided to just sell it.
01:00A few years later, he experienced it again in Baguio, Carina.
01:08According to the car shop owner in Quezon City, it's important to know what to do if the car got submerged.
01:15He said to get the car out of the water as soon as possible. He also said not to start the engine first.
01:20After that...
01:21First, we will remove the battery, the positive and the negative.
01:24Once we remove it, we will let it be.
01:28And then we will drain the engine oil, the fluids, gasoline, so that the car won't be totally damaged.
01:36He said that it's necessary to make sure that the computer box didn't reach the water.
01:41We are experts in checking the computer box because it requires a special skill.
01:46The Automobile Association of the Philippines reminded him to know how much will be spent on the repair of a submerged car
01:55so that he can decide if it's worth it.
01:58You should know how much the car will cost versus how much will be spent on the repair.
02:09If the car has no value and you will spend the right amount, why would you spend more?
02:17You have to be practical.
02:19This is the first news.
