Flood Protection+: The Ultimate Solution for Drivers in Flood-Prone Areas

Floods have become a recurring and concerning phenomenon in Malaysia, posing significant challenges to individuals, communities, and vehicles. Over the past two years, the country has experienced a surge in flood-related incidents, leading to widespread damage and disruptions. Data reveals a concerning increase in flood-related incidents, with the cumulative losses incurred by vehicles due to floods last year amounting to a staggering RM18.8 million. The financial and emotional consequences of such damage are substantial for car owners.

In addition, it is important to note that car dealers are reluctant to accept flood-damaged vehicles, as the cost of repairs often outweighs the car’s value. Repairing these cars can range from RM10,000 to RM80,000, depending on the make and model. Even if repairs are possible, many car workshops refuse to accept flood-damaged cars due to the higher level of liability involved. Moreover, significant uncertainty surrounds the electronic components and engine control units.

Given these challenges and as the frequency of floods rises, it becomes imperative for car owners to prioritise comprehensive flood protection measures to safeguard vehicles and alleviate the financial strain caused by flood damage.
