I am sure this is a common problem not limited to EVs, but my 23 Lariat smells awful after rain or going through a car wash tunnel. I've replaced the cabin filter to no avail. Service center tells me this isn't something covered under warranty and tried to sell me a service.

Have you had this problem, and if so how did you fix it? Is it truly not a warranty issue? (I wouldn't think bacterial growth would be wear and tear, but...)

My guess is the moonroof leaks. Unfortunately, a common problem.
