What will happen if I drive my car into the water?

If you drive your car into water that is deep enough to cover the bottom of your vehicle, the motor and electrical systems will likely suffer severe damage. The Water could enter the fuel system and contaminate it, resulting in an engine stall or other erratic behavior from the car. Electrical components may also be damaged by water exposure, and parts such as brake pads, which are designed to operate in dry conditions may not work correctly if they get wet. Finally, If you are lucky enough to escape major damage to your vehicle from driving into the water, expect to have a very dirty car afterwards due to all of the mud and salt residue that is often found in shallow bodies of water.

If you drive your car into the water, the vehicle may flood and become immobilized or it may be damaged by aquatic creatures or wildlife. It is advisable to leave the car where it is and contact a towing service for help.
