Hyundai Sta Fe Drowned.. :(

[blckrvntr]

My Santa Fe drowned from Undoy's disastrous storm.

Any hopes of recovering? Should I sell it? Please help. Casa is fully booked due to storm.

im sorry to hear that....

guess you'll have to wait for the casa to start accepting again or better yet look for other hyundai casas

Kung wala kang AOG then let the CASA check it first and see if it can be restored if not then chop chop na yan I am afraid... Any car thats has been drowned even if restored will never be the same again. If you sell it prepare for a huge loss...

naku bro, delikado yan kase dami electrical ng Sta Fe. pag wala kang AOG coverage malaki laking gastusan yan...pag binenta mo naman maswerte mo pag nakakuha ka ng 60% sa current market value ng car mo

If you have Acts Of God coverage... then put in your insurance claim and wait your turn at the casa. If you don't, take it to an outside shop and have them disassemble and clean everything. If you're lucky, and you didn't try to run the vehicle in the flood, it will run afterwards. If you're not, be prepared for a hefty bill from the casa for a replacement ECU.

Best to talk to other SF owners at the casa and find out what it will cost to repair. For sure, people will want to buy your SF off you as is, pero sobrang lugi ka sa mga ganyan... lots of people approaching owners of flooded cars nowadays, looking to buy them for scrap prices! If you do the repairs and get it in running condition, you can keep it for a few more years and get better value for your car.

check mo yung insurance policy mo tapos check mo kung may "acts of god" coverage dun, madalas included na detailing dun at towing service at repairs, tawagan mo na SA mo para siya magsched sayo para kahit papano bumilis,

nakita ko sa Inquirer today meron special service ang Hyundai, meron mga discounts para sa service, parts etc para sa mga nabahang Hyundai cars ng ondoy...

then tawag ka na kasi free towing for the first 250 callers yata sa kanila.

Ouch! So sorry for all the owners who's vehicles got submerged by the flood and didn't have any AOG covered in their policies. It will be pretty expensive to repair and quite difficult to sell these vehicles on the 2nd hand market. Buyers are definitely wary of purchasing 'flooded' cars. Owners can opt selling their car for its parts na lang.

Yung Santa Fe 4WD 2.7 V6 nang kapitbahay namin(mayari ng King Sue) nabaha.. Pero ok na ang SUV nya.

Pictures like that from Ondoy really breaks my heart lalo na yung mga first time brand-new owners na pinaghirapan nilang makuha ang oto nila.

Simply no words to describe that horrible feeling.

I hope that we won't experience anything like this in the near future.

^+1, especially kung binabayaran pa... yun magagastos sa restoration pwedeng ng monthly amortization ng almost 10 months.

kung kaya naman pa-repair try having it fixed na lang muna upto the best condition it can achieve. pakiramdaman mo sir, if hindi ka pa din satisfied sa naging performance then maybe its time to sell your SF but be ready for a low disposal price.
