had some nice flash flooding in the area from all the hurricane storms comin up to the midwest area today/lastnight, i didnt really know they were coming this way til i woke up to my car's horn blaring at 8:30 am this morning, went out side and found this:
![]() ![]() thats my car in the street with all the lights on and horn blasting, ive yet to figure out why they were on when i got out there, there was no water going inside the car, so i decided to leave it there, checked on it a few hours later when the water levels went down, and my whole interior was soaked with standing water on the floor just spent the past few hours trying to dump the water out and soaking it up with sponges and squeezing it out, aahhhhh what a day.... none the less i just got this car about a month and a half ago |

do u have an after market alarm??? id say she got cooked in the flood....check it out and un hook it.....empty out ur intake in case there is water in there..check ur plugs make sure water aint in there...same with ur exhaust i doubt water woulda traveled up that far but iv heard stories of ppl tryign to start cars in a flood and the car not starting but the vacum from rolling it over sucked water back in the motor?? i unno but check it out...hope she starts ok....open ur windows and vent it out is all u can do i guess....strip ur carpet seats and door panels put em some where with a (dehumidphyer) spelling?? and febreez the piss outa em make sure yea have no water layin around on ur floor and u should be ok
