Car was flooded by water and won't start

Asked by Sonata2013 May 17, 2015 at 07:52 PM about the 2013 Hyundai Sonata 2.0T Limited FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

We were caught in a flood in and the car stalled. Water was so deep it was coming inside
the car. We pushed it to higher ground and it won't start even after it dried out for three
days. I checked the fuses that the description had starting or key. It won't even turn over
or make any noise. All lights and insturment panel is working.
