Generally speaking, for most vehicles, it is advisable not to drive through water deeper than 30cm. Below is some relevant information about water entering the car: 1. Hazards: If water enters the car, many electronic devices inside can be submerged, which can easily lead to short circuits and damage. If water reaches the engine intake and enters the engine, it can cause engine damage. The consequences of water entering the engine are very serious, ranging from requiring major engine repairs to potentially causing the engine to be scrapped. 2. Precautions: During heavy rain, it is best for car owners not to drive out and to park the car in a higher location to avoid water immersion. If the vehicle has been driven through water and the water level rises above the door and enters the car, it indicates that the vehicle has been submerged. If the car is found to be submerged, you can try to see if the car can start. If the car can start and shows no signs of malfunction, the first step is to deal with the accumulated water inside the car.
