Mold and Mildew

Mold and mildew are bad for your health, but did you know that both of these substances can cause permanent damage to your vehicle’s unprotected interior surfaces? For mold and mildew growth to occur inside of your vehicle, the key word is moisture. A common scenario such as leaving your windows cracked or the sunroof partially open during a rainstorm, or accidentally spilling a beverage on your vehicle’s leather or vinyl seats, or even tracking wet shoes or pets onto your vehicle’s untreated carpeted surfaces can all create an environment for mold and mildew development. Once this occurs, mold and mildew spreads quickly by colonizing in the small nooks and crannies of your vehicle’s interior. As these substances grow, it is difficult to completely remove all of the mold and mildew residue from your vehicle. Even after cleaning, mold and mildew can leave permanent spots and stains on fabric, leather, vinyl, and carpeted surfaces, as well as an unpleasant odor that can prove both damaging to your vehicle’s new car appearance and to your overall health.
