Ionizer will help if there is odor. Just find a safe place in the sun open all the doors and windows and turn the SUV a couple of times to let it dry out on all sides. Almost all the materials in cars have been treated with anti fungus spray or the plastics just don't support the mold spoors to start with. You will be alright. This happens more than you think. Get a free oil change for getting your car wet, just ask.
Sorry - ionizer will NOT help - you'll need to replace ruined fabric at $$$.
well mold hmmm that is very dangerous, the ionizer will stop the spores from roaming and causing new mold but it will not kill the mold, you have to take some lemon juice and vinegar and douse the mold, or you can use a white zinefindel and pour it over the mold let it sit for a while (40minutes-1hour) then you work it in with a brush and then rinse it thoroughly.
Breathing mold and mildew is not healthy....a 50/50 mixture of bleach water kills mold and mildew.
I've left my own windows open in the rian and gotten mildew . . . i just leave the window open on hot days and eventually the sunshine and heat kills the spores and dries everything up. Once everything is dry, you can use febreeze to kill the odor too, in the upholstery and the carpet. But you definitely should go back to the dealer and insist that they do something for the inside, too, they might have a better idea.
did you tell them about this when it happened? if so they may be responsible for the repairs. my car got hit at the dealership and they had to fix it, however i never took it off the lot.
