We had some high rain waters in Houston, Texas today. When i got into my 2007 Ford Fusion (40,000 miles) the floor of the vehicle was wet. I called my insurance company, they will send someone out to inspect.
will it be plagued with problems for life now? or is it fixable? like i said the only thing that was wet was the floor of the vehicle, meaning the water reached up to that point….
Floor pan rust and mildew will most likely be the worst of it. I’d worry more if it reached your wiring, because then you would have major electrical problems.
You may want to have the trans axles or rear end checked to see if water entered them as well as checking the transmission to see if any water leaked into it.

The European Ford Fusion is a stretched version of the Ford Fiesta supermini produced by Ford of Europe since 2002 and sold in Europe and India. The design includes elements of both estates and multipurpose vehicles. Its extra height compared with the Fiesta is due to both roof racks, increased ground clearance and taller roof, which makes it roomier and more comfortable for taller drivers than regular superminis, drawing it closer to mini MPVs and mini SUVs. A nofrills XUV version of the Fusion called the Ford EcoSport is produced in Brazil and sold in many Latin American countries. It is similar to the Fusion, but as any XUV it features an increased ride height, offroad suspension, larger wheels and dark bumpers. 1.0 turbo, 1.4, 1.6 and 2.0litre Duratec petrol engines and 1.4litre TDCi diesel engines with frontwheel drive or fourwheel drive are available.
