QUESTION: YES. THE WATER WENT ABOVE THE CAR AND FELL. AFTER HE GOT OUT OF THAT THE CAR JUST QUIT ON HIM.

Answer
ALL the computers and electronics in the complete vehicle have been shorted out and your looking at thousands of dollars to fix this vehicle. I would contact your insurance company and try and get it labled as a TOTAL LOSS and take your insurance money and buy another car.

There are literally a hundred or so of electronic devices in this vehicle that have been destroyed by the water.
