Insurance policys do not cover water damange. not even home owners does its a completly seperate policy so yeah Im fucked I not only have a honda but a brand new mustang. So this is going to be very vey very costly about 1200$ recarpet for each is what i was quoted a few months ago.

Why dont you recarpet it yourself? I bought a "carpet kit" for my Prelude a few years ago, it was about $100-150 and took a day to put in

If you know how to check the check engine light, im sure a few people here including myself can get that gone for you. As for the carpet kit... its very inexpensive from places online.

Not true, nationwide covered my sister's car twice and my mom's car when they flooded when parked on the side of the road in a hurricane.

Yeah my car pretty much is starting but idles in and out and I think water was coming out the tail pipe im not sure how much but some was from my uncle walking behind me when I was trying to move my car back to my side of the parking lot. The people who didn't move their cars seem to be fine other than a car full of water its the ones who moved the cars who are having the problems should have just left it there. I posted new photos if anyone wants to see them. So im not to sure what to do at this point I have the windows open and took everything out of the car. The shitty part is I just put another motor in that car a week ago and Im just biting my tongue in hopes that the motor doesn't lock up from water being inside if water did get in.

But on a brighter note the mustang is fine it runs with no problems go figure

Take out the carpet if you can. Invest in a really strong fan (I suggest the blue blower, it kicks ass), because just having the windows open won't circulate enough air to properly dry your car out without leaving a smell.
