WATER LEAKED OUT OF AN INSULATED COOLER SITTING ON THE FLOOR BEHIND THE RIGHT PASSENGER SEAT. THE WATER WENT THRU THE CARPET AND CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE MODULES WHICH THEN SHUT DOWN THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND CAUSED THE CAR TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND COULD NOT BE STARTED AS WE HAD JUST LEFT THE FREEWAY. THE CAR HAD TO BE TOWED TO A DEALER. IT HAD TO BE DRIED OUT, REINSTALL THE BATTERY, REPLACE THE CONTROL MODULES. WE WERE TOLD THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM EVEN IF A DRINK WERE SPILLED ON THE BACKFLOOR. THE DEALER TOLD US IT WAS A POOR DESIGN FOR PLACEMENT OF ALL THESE ELECTRICAL MODULES. THE OLD PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. *TR
