| Several months ago i drove through a puddle of water in our parking lot at work. it was storming with the wind blowing as well. when i drove through the puddle, my battery light came on and i lost steering. then engine never stopped. once i traveled a few yards, the steering started working and the battery light went off. it happened another 3 more times before i ever left my work facility. i was able to drive to a toyota dealership for them to check it out. they found nothing wrong with the car. i told them something makes me lose steering associated with water. the gentleman at toyota told me not to drive through puddles. i did not think it was funny. it has happened a few more times with my husband driving. we live in louisiana and it rains. i can not avoid going through water when it rains. i need help. *tr | |||
