I accidentally left my windows open last night and it rained all night. How do I dry out my car seats?

Oh no, that’s so frustrating! You’ll want to act quickly to avoid lasting damage, mold, or lingering odors.
First, open your car doors so your car gets some cross-ventilation and help air out the car.
After that, use a towel to soak up as much wetness as you can—you may go through quite a few towels! If you have a shop vac or similar tool, use the wet setting to suck up the moisture. A hairdryer also works in a pinch. Finally, aim several fans into your car to further dry out the vehicle. You’ll want to run the fans for several hours, at minimum.
If your car has sustained major water damage, it may be covered under
comprehensive insurance
