2005 TOYOTA COROLLA User Comment / Complaint

My corolla stalled in a flooded street that was visibly passable for other vehicles, both small and large. as a result of the exposure to the water, the car experienced a major engine failure. during a discussion with a representative at the dealership, i learned that the air-in-take system is located relatively low to the ground "on the bumper." this seems to be a design flaw which could lead to the car failing to perform during relatively minor flooding conditions.
