Push the car to a higher ground area without water accumulation and call the insurance company. Then tow the car to a repair shop to check the water ingress situation. When the reactor is operating at a significant reaction rate, reduce the temperature of the feed inlet.
Having driven for over a decade, I've witnessed numerous cases of engine stalling due to water ingress. The golden rule is never to restart the engine immediately after stalling, as water entering the cylinders can seize pistons and cause catastrophic damage. In my case, I promptly called for a tow truck to transport the vehicle to a repair shop. The technician removed the spark plugs to inspect for water accumulation, drained it, and replaced the oil filter as well. Minor issues like these can be fixed easily, but severe engine water ingress may require an overhaul costing thousands. Safety first – since then, I avoid deep water areas during rainy days and maintain low speed when passing through waterlogged sections. Such repair experiences remind us to regularly inspect chassis seals and never neglect routine maintenance.
