Killed my Car in Flood (Tropical Storm Issaac)

Driving home I made it through one flooded area and when I got to the next section I realized I could not make it through. Tried to go back and car died half way in. Took twenty minutes to get DCT in neutral to roll car onto dry land.

Dealer got car Monday night and after 1.5 hours it is still dead, and they are unsure of the damage. I called Geico and they set up loaner and will send adjuster to see car hopefully today. Dealer wants 4 more hour of diagnose time.

Water did not get into interior at all.

Hoping for the best.

Where I live got twice as much rain as in Hurricane Wilma, nearly 16-18 inches.
