I live in South Florida and it has been very rainy these past few weeks. I noticed a little water on my floor mats but figured I had tracked it in with all the rain. The past few days have been much drier. This morning I had a little errand to run and after arriving at my destination I noticed a very steady drip of water from under the center console and collecting on my floor mats. This is South Florida and the AC in the truck is always running.

Any ideas? Is there a pipe for the AC drain pan that got plugged up or something? I appreciate the .02. Truck is 2023 Hybrid with about 50K.

If the AC drain is clean, it might be the the seal on the windshield. This happened on my daughter's '04 Pontiac.

And the windshield seal issue has happened with a good number of Mavericks as well, although that typically showed up in the floor on the passenger side.

I would put a dab on my finger and sniff it. Totally useless exercise I know - but I can’t help it.

Here is my floor board on the drivers side, passenger side is wet as well. Im wondering if the AC drain has been updated or changed out… assuming it’s the AC drain.

I am more than likely cancelling my appointment. I crawled underneath the truck and cleared the AC drain vent out and made an access hole to get to it easier. I have the extended warranty, but don’t want to deal with the dealer shenanigans over this.

It’s right behind this circled area, so I just used a 1.5” hole saw and cut out a circle by hand, and will plug it with a grommet.

Dang, that's like water logged, I would suggested that carpet be completely dried out, top side and underneath, if not you'll be dealing with black mold stink and health hazards. Maybe Ford will replace it under warranty?
