What to Do When There Is Water on the Car Floor?
2 Answers
Go to a car wash shop, take out the floor mats, and use a vacuum cleaner to remove most of the water. Use dry towels alternately placed under the floor mats to absorb water until clean. Go to a repair shop and use high-pressure air to blow through the pipes.
Last time, water suddenly appeared on the floorboard of my car, possibly due to the window not being properly closed after heavy rain or a leaking air conditioning pipe. I immediately used dry towels to vigorously soak up the water, then opened the windows to let hot air blow in to speed up drying, which took quite a while. Water accumulation on the floorboard can easily lead to rust or mold, damaging the car's structure. Later, I learned my lesson and now regularly check the door seals and air conditioning drain holes to prevent small issues from turning into major repairs. I also specifically added a floor mat to absorb water, making it easier to clean. Remember, don't let water sit for too long, otherwise it can corrode the electrical circuits, which would be troublesome.
