  1. How dense can you guys be? 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.

  8. +TheEryk03 Sure.....this wasn't just a tsunami splash. this was a car hitting a puddle directly infront of him as autovlog was driving righ tthrough the deep puddle. A combination of a deep puddle, big wave and quick burst of water. Literally almost any car would get hydrolocked under autovlogs exact scenario. The intakes of the c63 sits low in the front since its a performance car and having the intake in such a position allows the v8 engine to breath better and hence perform better. And it has measures that prevent hydrolock but autovlog got hit with too much water too fast for the system to even react. Thus this is more bad luck than anything else. If this was a design issue then we would see a whole lot more c63s getting hydrolocked and mercedes would have to recall them . This isn't the case at all. Funny enough auto vlog filmed before and after accident but not during the accident. Pretty fishy. Hence there is more to this story but based on what we know This is a rare case scenario and would afffect almost any car in the same way. And no I don't live in the desert, thats just your assumption. Yes mercedes knows how to make cars. Heck they invented the modern automobile in the first place. Search who karl benz is, inventor of the modern automobile and founder of mercedes benz. So show some respect before you talk crap which you have no idea what you are talking about. If any company is good at preventing water into the intake its mercedes. See mercedes unimogs or the 6x6. That thing will eat practically any terrain or liquid in front of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZc6kZB0q9A The c63 is a performance car so its not meant to be going through rare scanarios like this. So it wasn't a mere splash of water....autovlog has driven hhis cars many times in the rain with many splashes of water hitting the car (as you can see in his vlogs) and nothing happened. This was a bad luck scenario which is why it isn't a warrenty issue.
