Well the other night my friend was sure he closed his windows when he got home at 2am but im guessing when he put his key back in his pocket it hit his phone and held the unlock button which left his car windows down all night in the rain.Thats his story to it. You guessed it he got water all inside his car in the flooring and his passanger seat. next morning he saw this around 9 he said an went outside and started drying everything as fast as he can an took his mats out and dried them in the garage. he soaked up all the water from the interior with cloths for the last two days and somehow still gets fog from the inside, inside his car and his passanger seat is moist and he cant get it dried up fully.. what can be done about this??

yea, best bet is to roll down the windows and let it bake in the sun, as for the smell...he's gonna have to get the carpet steam cleaned...

If it was me, I'd get a hold of a water remediation/carpet cleaning place for the car to suck as much water out of the carpet as possible.

Did he take a wet/dry vac to the car already at least or just soak it up from the surface?

I'd be worried about mold growing inside the car (under the carpet).

+1 on wet vac. I would have done that right away, then leave it in the sun maybe even get some fans to keep the air circulating.

that's what I was thinking...

Wet-vac it and then steam the hell out of the carpet. Bake it in the sun (or heaters in a garage) and do it quickly to avoid mold growth underneath the carpet. Might want to look for a shop that specializes in vehicles that get flooded. They'll have some sort of checklist that might not be as obvious to you or your friend. Might cost a bit but the G is worth it brutha!!!!!

Put it in the garage and open the house door so that it heats/cools the garage. Keep it in a place where the humidity is as low as possible. If its still raining out, it'll never evaporate out of the interior.
