Clean the inside of the windshield regularly with an appropriate automotive glass cleaner and a clean microfiber cloth.
Be particularly careful with tinted windows or specialty coatings and use products compatible with them.
Why Mold and Musty Odors Matter
A persistent musty smell is a warning sign that should not simply be covered with air freshener.
Microorganisms can grow where materials remain damp for extended periods. Moisture trapped beneath carpet, around upholstery, or in other hidden areas can create conditions favorable to mold growth.
People who are sensitive to mold may experience irritation or allergy-related symptoms when exposed.
If you see substantial mold or the smell persists despite drying and cleaning, professional inspection may be appropriate.
Can Moisture Damage the Car?
Persistent water intrusion should not be ignored.
