It has to be a decent sized puddle, or a freak act of physics, but hitting a puddle at speed will send water flying forward, potentially into your intake. When mine hydrolocked it was parked in a low spot in a parking lot that was flooding, when the dealer went to move it bam, they sucked water up.
