Ways to Get Rid of Bad Smells in Your Car

For stains that emit rotten smells, you should use a freshener that's designed to eliminate odors from upholstery. Using the wrong type of product can make the stain worse and do nothing to rid your car of the stench.

One way to prevent rotten smells is to stock up on air freshener trees that can be hung from the rear view mirror. Many of these products can actually make older cars smell new again.

The cabin air filter may collect some residue from leaves, engine dirt or mold, which can cause bad smells to seep in. When visiting the certified dealer for a basic maintenance checkup, ask the mechanic to change your cabin filter for the sake of air quality. With these tips in mind, your car will likely be allergy-free and fresh-smelling.
