My wife (before I met her) had a computer in her BMW go out.
She drove through a moderate puddle of water and splashed water onto
the case that holds the computer. It stopped right away and cost
almost $2k to replace the computer. BMW would not support the repair
despite the car still being under warranty because it was "water
damage" despite several letters to BMW America. Apparently there were
having a problem with hundreds of cars with the same problem and didn't
want to pay the piper.
