At what water level does a car become dangerous?

[OliviaAnn]

Exceeding the bottom of the intake grille. Generally speaking, when the water level reaches the bottom of the intake grille, it is already a very dangerous waterline. To prevent water from entering the car engine, never force your way through high-water areas, as this can cause significant damage to the vehicle. Additionally, when reselling the car as a used vehicle, the depreciation rate will be quite high. Additional information: 1. Do not drive through water: Starting or driving in water that reaches the engine intake can lead to engine damage. The safest approach during rainy weather is to avoid driving through water if you are unsure of the depth. 2. Do not restart the engine: Regardless of the reason for the engine stalling, do not attempt to restart it. Never force-start the engine. Instead, immediately report the incident to your insurance company at the scene and wait for professionals to provide rescue services.
