When it rains the stereo loses power or the car stalls it's hilarious, and at night even after replacing the entire headlight assembly the exterior lights and dash clusters will cut in and out. All of it was tied back to an ecu and wiring harness needing to be replaced which is quite expensive to get replaced. After that it drove like new
This is what I was thinking. A flood-salvaged car can be a nightmare. Better just to let it go and let insurance help get another one.
