Depends on what emissions standards it's compliant with. If you have an EPA2010 or Euro6 compliant engine, water is just a byproduct of the Selective Catalytic Reduction system.

What does it mean when water comes out the exhaust pipe of my impala?
Water comes out of all tailpipes no matter how minimal. The combustion reaction of burning gasoline (C8H18) and oxygen (02) produces carbon exhaust (Cx) and water (h20) thus leaving water in your tailpipe. Water can also appear in an exhaust pipe due to condensation. Water in an exhaust pipe is perfectly normal and is of no harm to your vehicle, or any vehicle.
