Will water entering the car window cause harm?
1 Answers
Small amounts of rainwater splashing into the car window or large-scale water ingress will not damage the internal wiring system of the car, nor will it affect the mechanical systems. This is because the car's electrical circuits are protected by sheathed wires and are not prone to issues. If you notice abnormal headlights or other functional abnormalities while driving, it is advisable to have them inspected and repaired promptly. Below is a detailed introduction: Cleaning carpets or floor mats: If rainwater has seeped into the carpets or floor mats, they should be taken out, cleaned, and dried. Disinfection: After addressing the water accumulation issue, it is also necessary to disinfect the interior of the car to prevent lingering odors. Removing seats after mold or deterioration: If there is water accumulation on the car floor, or if water has seeped beneath the floor covering, or if the car still has a persistent musty smell after drying, it indicates that the area beneath the floor covering, including materials like foam, has become damp and moldy. In such cases, it is necessary to visit a professional auto repair shop to remove the seats and lift the floor covering to thoroughly clean and eliminate the musty smell.
