At what water level does a car become dangerous?

[GabrielaFitz]

Exceeding the bottom of the grille. Generally speaking, when the water level reaches the bottom of the 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 it can cause significant damage to the vehicle. Additionally, the depreciation rate when reselling the car as a used vehicle will also be quite high. Do not drive through water: Starting or driving in water that reaches the engine air 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 of the accumulated water. Do not attempt to restart: 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 professional assistance.
