Flooded Mercedes owner warned of saltwater electrical damage

Original: Dude in a Mercedes about to figure out what salt water does to your electrical system, lol. (in a few weeks or months) #

Commenters are mocking a driver who took a Mercedes through saltwater flooding, predicting the car's electrical systems will fail weeks or months later as corrosion sets in. Salt water is notorious for silently destroying wiring, sensors and control modules long after a vehicle appears to have survived a flood unscathed.

Why now: Coastal and hurricane flooding has left many cars exposed to salt water, and people are warning about hidden long-term damage
