Apart from special discounts, Ford is encouraging motorists to follow these vehicle maintenance tips for vehicles damaged by flood water:

1. Do not attempt to start a flooded vehicle until thorough inspection and cleaning have been conducted. Try to disconnect battery terminals starting with the negative terminal. 
2. Take immediate steps to dry the vehicle as much as possible to reduce the time its components are exposed to water.
3. Record the highest level of water exposure on the flooded vehicle. This will aid a qualified technician in the evaluation process as well as taking the necessary steps to correct any damage.
4. Contact your Ford dealer to arrange for an inspection and evaluation of the flooded vehicle. 
5. After thorough inspection, detail the interior and exterior compartment of the vehicle.
