Description of the problem	My windshield and back window was fogging on the inside during the fall and frosting on the inside during the winter. My carpets felt like a sponge. It turned out there were 6" of standing water under my floorboards on the driver side of the car (front and back). The mechanic traced this back to an opening between two panels, just below the windshield, that were never sealed. He said i was lucky. If the water got any higher, it could have interfered with the electrical and airbag system. I also lucked out in that there was no mold growth. My car was purchased new only five years prior and had never been in an accident. Repair required the removal of my windshield, a side panel on the car, my driver seat, and the tearing up of my carpets.
