About this listen

A water bottle tips over in the passenger seat… and somehow turns into a $12,000 repair bill. Sounds impossible, right?

In today’s breakdown, we’re looking at how a small water spill caused a massive electrical failure, why some vehicles are extremely vulnerable to liquid damage, and how repair shops respond when diagnostics hit the most expensive modules in the car.
