Footwell
The footwell is the space in front of each seat where the occupants’ feet rest, including the driver’s pedal area.
What is Footwell?
Wet footwells are a common sign of leaks. Floor mats must not interfere with the pedals. Heater ducts often run under the front seats into the rear footwells. Rubber mats are easier to clean in winter and keep water from soaking the carpet.
How it works
The floor pan and carpet form the footwell, often with sound insulation underneath.
Why it matters for your car
Use mats that fit the car and are secured with clips. Water in the footwell can damage control units placed under the carpet.
