That happened on the roof with my old one when I didn't wash it for a year. Looked like a god damn science experiment. There was like actual crystalline structures growing. Maybe a mini biome. I probably killed an entire civilization of microbes when I finally washed it.

My rear carpet would mold when the car was parked outside and not driven often. I believe from the door windows not sealing well, never saw any water pool just too humid in the car. Would never see any condensation on the inside of the windows either. I keep a tub of desiccant in it now even though it is parked inside.

Did you check the rear strut section? I remember some member complaining about pool of water coming in from there and fill up in the spare tire section.

Pay for the testing and I'll do it, other than salt stains there's nothing visibly untoward on the base carpets of my car.

I'm more curious what it looks like if we took a black light to it.

NO MOLD and I have not contacted my insurance company to claim it or taken any other moronic action.
Maybe you should just dig deeper.
