I went to the Chrysler dealership and the service tech said the same thing, "they all smell like that". He recommended that I spray Lysol spray on the vents near the windshield.
Has anyone ever experienced this?
The smell could come from the AC unit. Also the air intake under the cowl could be allowing water to enter the car because the drains under the cowl are blocked with debris. This would get the inside wet and it would eventually smell.
