I searched around the forums and didn't find anything helpful, so I thought I'd ask for advice here.
We were caught in tropical storm ETA. If the forecast had given us a clue before it was too late we would have blasted out of here, but but the time the alarm was raised the wind and flooding had us stuck. Salt water, of course. My wife's Prius had water in the passenger compartment and is toast. My 2017 Expedition got wet, but only up to the running boards. Nothing inside. Everything seems to be working fine. I'd rather not have insurance tell me they're going to total it which seems to be the general reaction. I went to the car wash and got the undercarriage wash twice. I have not tested the electric connection for my travel trailer yet.
So, I expect to need to replace the brakes, but any thoughts? I love the vehicle and would prefer to keep it. Am I crazy? Any suggestions of things I should consider or worry about would be appreciated.
Thanks,
JimH
