I have a 2019 Bolt LT that I got a couple weeks ago which I park uncovered. My part of NC has been in a "flash drought" but last night we got some rain. I haven't been out to try to start it yet this morning. So here are my questions:

Should I put the car in a bag of rice to dry it put first? It worked when I dropped my phone in the pool last summer?

Do chevy dealer sell appropriately sized bags?

What is a good source for bulk rice?

Would it help to pack the inside of the car w/ those little sillica packets?

Is the rice reusable (to dry the car again next time, not for eating) and what's the best storage method?

Thanks for your help!
;)

Your car will be fine but the electricity in the tank is probably ruined. You should dispose of that and replace it with fresh electrons.
