Does Water Under the Car Seat Have Any Impact?

[StephanieAnn]

If there is water under the rear seat floor mat of a car, appropriate measures should be taken based on the severity of the water ingress to prevent damage to the car's interior and components. 1. If there is not much water under the rear seat floor mat: You can remove the floor mat and carpet, clean them with a car-specific carpet cleaner and a brush, then let them dry. Remove any remaining water inside the car, open the doors to air dry, or drive the car to a sunny area to dry the moisture (if the car seats are made of genuine leather, avoid direct sunlight exposure). 2. If there is a significant amount of water under the rear seat floor mat: It is necessary to remove the car seats, floor mats, carpet, and floor sponge, clean the accumulated water, replace any damaged control units, and check for any water-damaged wiring to prevent potential short circuits in the future.
