Is It Okay as Long as the Car Doesn't Stall When Driving Through Water?

Even if the car doesn't stall when driving through water, there can still be issues. Driving through water can cause the transmission to take in water, which can damage the car's electronic systems. Here are some related details: Reasons for stalling: Power supply failure, typically due to damaged ignition coils; failure of electronic components, such as the engine computer, which can't issue any commands once it fails; carbon buildup, which is an intake fault. Precautions: Even if the car doesn't stall after driving through water, maintenance checks are still necessary. First, you should slow down or stop to observe. As long as the water level reaches two-thirds of the bumper or tire height, driving through water poses a certain risk. High speed increases the actual depth of water the car passes through, causing rainwater to enter the cabin from the engine compartment or chassis. Avoid driving against the waves created by large vehicles.
