You go home to rest. The following day, you:

A. Clean your brakes
B. Have your car lifted and have a pressure washer wash out all the dirt
C. Check your tyres for damage from nails, screws, bits of metal

Did I miss anything else? What do you do after going through a flood?
Knee-deep water is dangerous for cars. But its fine for 4x4 pickup trucks and 4x4 suv.

Since you mentioned "minutes" going thru flood. Ill share my 2 cents:

A. Clean your brakes -tell your mechanic to clean your caliper pistons too. water may have seeped thru and rust formation will occur after a few months resulting to brake stuckup

B. Have your car lifted and have a pressure washer wash out all the dirt
C. Check your tyres for damage from nails, screws, bits of metal

D. Have your alternator and electric starter cleaned. If your ride is submerged rust formation will likely occur resulting to hard starting

E. Replace transmission oil. Transmission have breathers and knee-deep flood water will find a way to enter and mix with your transmission oil

F. Grease up all parts that needed to be greased
