I hydro locked my 2002 Nissan Sentra. Water came up to my arse as I sat there cursing.

Car was paid for, no comprehensive and a winter beater, so I dried/changed/cleaned and kept it.

Threw a rod 1k later, main ECU and airbag ECU blew, electronics had unfixable gremlins, fuel door release rusted stuck, filler neck rusted, cap never sealed and threw codes, brakes rusted and seized, the list just keeps going.

Ended up limping it for 60k miles past the flood.

Trust me - WAS A HUGH MISTAKE AND NOT WORTH IT.

Spend a little more and get a car that's right.
