My car is still too new for any of that. I hate getting near puddles. That said, the CT is a very well sealed unit, with under body panels (for aerodynamics) that should keep the mud from getting anyplace it shouldnt. I would spend some time powerwashing the wheel wells and the lower bits. You should be fine.
Off Roading in the 200h
Two days ago in east Texas it rained all day, unfortunately in my travels that day i had to travel a dirt road. I decided that this was a BAD idea, partly because i nearly went into a tree (the car auto corrected nicely) and partly because i could feel the mud building on my wheels. My poor car made a sound that was very off putting it sounded like it was very mad, it "growled" at me like a dog would. It is driving fine now and i have not heard any strange sounds, i drove it to Hobby airport lastnight a 86 mile trip each way and got 45.6 mpg so i assume everything is fine. Has anyone else had this happen, is there any thing i should look for to make sure i got the mud out from underneath? any "trouble spots"? Thanks
