Driving in Water

{CAUTION:

Driving through rushing water can be

dangerous. Deep water can sweep your

vehicle downstream and you and your

passengers could drown. If it is only

shallow water, it can still wash away the

ground from under your tires, and you

could lose traction and roll the vehicle

over. Do not drive through rushing water.

Heavy rain can mean ﬂash ﬂooding, and ﬂood

waters demand extreme caution.

Find out how deep the water is before you drive

through it. If it is deep enough to cover your wheel

hubs, axles, or exhaust pipe, do not try it — you

probably will not get through. Also, water that deep

can damage your axle and other vehicle parts.

If the water is not too deep, drive slowly through it.

At faster speeds, water splashes on your ignition

system and your vehicle can stall. Stalling can also

occur if you get your tailpipe under water. And,

as long as your tailpipe is under water, you

will never be able to start your engine. When you

go through water, remember that when your

brakes get wet, it may take you longer to stop.

See Driving in Rain and on Wet Roads on page 390

for more information on driving through water.

After Off-Road Driving

Remove any brush or debris that has collected on

the underbody, chassis, or under the hood.

These accumulations can be a ﬁre hazard.

After operation in mud or sand, have the brake

linings cleaned and checked. These substances

can cause glazing and uneven braking. Check the

body structure, steering, suspension, wheels,

tires, and exhaust system for damage. Also, check

the fuel lines and cooling system for any leakage.

Your vehicle will require more frequent service

due to off-road use. Refer to the Maintenance

Schedule for additional information.
