Stepdad's car broke down

[KillerCop311]

My stepdad's Charger broke down last night when it got flooded in the parking.
It was the 1st car he ever bought, and has had it for a long time.

He had to take the old car we got from someone to work today, and I'm afraid that car will break if it floods again.

He's very sad, and so am I and my mom.

What do I do? If both cars break I'm not going to be able to leave Virginia Beach (which is where I am during the summer)!

way to turn an engine flooding into a huge deal.

I mean, he can't honestly be worried about an engine flooding, that's almost expected when you own an old car, and I'm taking it that we're talking about like a 70's or 80's charger

Lol just an engine flood. Who the hell starts getting sad over that.

Let me say this:

1. It was his first car he bought. Ever.

2. It was NOT a engine flood. Water flooded into the car and it must've gotten to a fuse. We can't afford a new car or pay to fix it.

1. Yes we all understand this feeling.
2. Ouch. What the forget happened, did he drive it in a lake or something?
3. Not place for discussion.

1. We all feel this, we love cars, we are men

2. You made it seem like an engine flood, a fuse is a fairly easy fix for anyone who can read a manual

3. gg you browse the forums

If it's salt water he can kiss his car goodbye.

if it's salt water he wouldn't be taking his car to work, obviously nothing is majorly damaged or broken if it is currently being driven

Wait what? It says he took some other guys old car to work.

I'm confused about the way he worded that, but I'm pretty sure he meant he took another car.

Dammit I messed up. What I meant was my Stepdad's car he took to work got flooded while it was in the parking area.

It rained a lot, and I think there was a flash flood warning at one point. We live near the beach, so that's entirely possible.

Then he will need to replace the motor oil, break oil, transmission oil or whatever and ect(stuff that more mechanicy people than me know.) OILS that have been touched by water need replacement.
Water is bad enough already, if it's salt it can corrode the metal and over a long period of time it will get bad and nasty.

We can't do anything about that. We don't have the money or the time. They're going to tow the car soon.
