Is the engine seized or did something stopped working ?

Asked by Sparza Mar 29, 2021 at 07:51 AM about the 2007 Dodge Charger R/T RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

So I have a 2007 charger rt, and recently it stopped
working, I was on the freeway it was a rainy day
and upcoming was a puddle of water and since I
was in the freeway I couldn’t avoid it since there
was cars coming, so I went thru the puddle and as
soon as I got out of it, the engine started losing
power so I pulled over and it completely shut off.
Any ideas of what it could be or is the engine
seized ?

My guess is some electrical wiring got wet. You will need to dry the engine bay completely and all electrical plugs and connections. I would perform an oil change as well, just in case some got in the crankcase.
