Default water damage?
So a water main broke and poured water down my driveway and into the garage. The standing water stopped about 1/2 inch below the door opening, so no water made it into the car.

Is there any potential damage to other parts of the car?

Thanks

You should be ok as long as no water got to the pcm which is located under the battery.

The car isnt throwing any codes and runs fine, so I'm guessing they're ok. Regardless, I'll take a look and make sure they're dry and in good shape.

Thanks again.
