Good day,
today while I was driving, my heel when I accelerate, slide from one side to other side, because under the heel was a piece of ice on carpet. So I scraped it and saw this:

 


I think it is death for floorboard of car. What are Yours opinions? Maybe there is kind how to warm this?
I scraped some snow from floor with a scraper of windows, but snow stucked in tiny hairs of floor.

Temperature is -20 at night and -10 at day. Brrr, it is cold. Confused

Just park it somewhere warm and let it dry. Should be fine again, but I suspect you have a leak somewhere.

I use mats. There are made of substance. So when it is wet, moisture stay in a car and becomes snow.
I will try to switch warm air to floor and see result.

I thought about it before, but my side mat's condition is not very good, bottom is some obsolete.

i had this problem when it was snowing her....All it is is everytime you enter the car you obviously have snow on your shoes eventually this builds up in the footwell. You may notice the build up as when in the car it is obviously warmer so some of the frost/snow melts...making it look less than there actually is. Obviously then when you leave the car overnight the melsted frost/snow re-freezes.

just remeber evertime you get in the car with snowy shoes your transferring snow into the car however evertime you get it will not be the reverse process
