If you are judging what the truth is by advertising copy, you are screwing up. Because those types of cars are seldom driven through high water, they don't need the dampers at all. But that's not going to stop the company from selling them to anyone willing to pony up a few bucks.

There is no design flaw, it's advertising.

Lucky you. Many people don't have such good luck.
