2013 corolla LE restoration

Vehicle was involved in a lone accident due to a chain of events.
Vehicle hydroplaned on a very wet slippery road, driver lost control and it's front right tyre got stuck in a depression which resulted in the car sonersaulting several times and then coming to rest on its roof.

Enough of the grammar, pictures following

NB: licence plate of vehicle has been masked off to protect identity of owner.

hyundai Tucson SUV 2013 model; the gear is not selecting, the electrician said it's the sensor which he changed to a new one but yet it's still not selecting. What could be the issue?

MotorGuru:
question sir, did you at anytime experience a huge jerk at high speed before this happened? Did your gear indicator indicate being stuck in gear 4 when put in manual mode? Is it only engaging in reverse? Has your fliud ever being changed( and what was its condition? Black?) Do you hear whining noise when drive or reverse is selected and you rev the car?
Finally, you may need to scan the vehicle to ascertain the real cause... Pls let me know of any of these ever happened.

AlphaT1:
Yes the jerk at high speed happened while travelling,
it's stuck on gear 3 in manual mode,
yes it's engaging well in reverse,
the fluid has never been changed, the Mechanic checked its condition ad said it was ok.
There is no whining noise neither in drive nor reverse mode.
The vehicle was scanned and according to the electrician it was the gear sensor that was bad and he replaced it but the issue still persists.

GAZZUZZ:
gear might still be in excellent working condition.

If the vehicle throws a camshaft/crank sensor code, car goes into limp mode and gets stuck in 3rd gear, same thing if if the transmission fuse blows or its relay malfunctions. I think user should post the scan code before we jump into conclusions.

Kia/hyundai have very solid transmissions.

Pls I need ur expert opinion. As a first time buyer should I buy a Honda 08 whose only problem is to service the engine nozzle

Kashif:
This may be an electrical issue. 50% of auto gear issues are external to it.

WaleOdunsi:
Very insightful comments MotorGuru - thanks.

I was just listing the known issues and not that the throttle issue was connected or informs the AC and audio problem. And as you have correctly said it is the throttle body that was changed.

Engine runs fine.

I was told about the AC and audio unit but I need a second opinion check.

Is a wire harness change out feasible/worth it? Rust is a big one...under the dash area and ofcourse the floor areas...so I suspect some wires and connectors will be having failing conductivity issues....so I need some thoughts on how to source wire harness parts (Oyingbo?) and competent car electrician.

Thanks again.

WaleOdunsi:
Hello MotorGuru...good work you are doing here - Welldone.

I have just found out that a 2006 Acura MDX I picked sometime ago was flooded.

I have changed out the throttle sensor but still have general electrical issues - Ac not working and Audio susuyem not outputting sound.

I have been advised to change out the wire harnesses - any thoughts (parts availability and change out competence) about this change out ?

Thanks.

Oga guru, these analysis a bit pass my understanding oo. For instance how do you mean by defective intake manifold, stripped headbolts and suspension.

Thanks so far
I bought car Nigerian used, previous owner most likely used wrong oil.I have changed to recommend with little improvement, vehicle actual mileage 104k mile.
Considering the chances of falling into the wrong hands, is there any consequence of ignoring repair?
