[TECHNOLOGIC] It wasn't he rain that got him. It was the fact that a car infront of him coming towards him hit a deep puddle of water which created a large wave that hit his car...in other words .. He got hit with a tsunami of a wave by a car in front.. This is more bad luck than anything else Thats why This isn't a warranty issue nothing broke because of an mechanical issue it's was due to weather. Mercedes would honor it if it was just that but anything else falls under insurance. That's like saying a Ferrari should be better engineered so it won't have hail damage, and if it gets caught in a hail storm...and is damaged, FERRARI should warranty it. the car's systems can only handle so much of an influx of water at once. It can filter some out and cope with it, burn it off, etc. But he got bombarded with a large wave of water that's harder for a car, any car, to cope with. That's why you avoid driving through high water or when there's a chance to get a large level of water in the car. That's one of the things I learned when driving you AVOID large puddles because there's always that chance enough water can get into the intake and hydrolock the engine. Regardless, it's not a warranty thing, the car didn't fail because of any mechanical or design flaw it failed because of operator error/"an act of God." Merc designed and built the car, but they're not the ones who allow large sums of water to get thrown in the intake. I mean the car has to have an intake and anywhere it is it risks sucking in water. Avoid puddles. If you driving on the road and you see cars in the oncoming lane splashing up large amounts of water from puddles either movie over to another lane, get off that street, or pull over and wait for the rain to die down. Cars run on fuel and air, they can't run at all on water. If it were many c63s getting hydrolocked like this then it would be recalled... But this isn't the case... This is an incredibly rare and unlucky scenario and would effect almost any car in a similar way.
