Sway bar shorted out

I'm new to the forum, first time to post. I have a 2012 Rubicon that I totally love. Last weekend I was playing off-road and went through several deep ruts filled with water. The water came up over the bottom of my doors. The next day my dashboard started going crazy, all the indicators lighting up. Bottom line I was told the Sway bar electrical system was filled with water and shorted out. $2,500 to repair. I can't believe simply driving in some water would do this. Is this unusual, anyone else experience this? Does this indicate a design defect? Most importantly, anything I can do to prevent it from recurring?
Thanks,

When the dealer stopped replacing my smart bar motor I put the EVO knob and now I have RE removable sway bar links all so. Been working great for me for years.
