water isn't supposed to be spilling from anywhere in or out of your car! Leak under the dash would be......... oh-go ahead,take a guess.

TopShadeTree - there is no piont in trying to give d.i.y. instruction on how to or what to look for. He didn't even know WHAT FLUID could be leaking under the dash. sorry I was abrupt. so okay- you could check inside the glovebox for a leaking soda can. Go to the shop.

We have the same problem in our '07 Caravan. The overflow tube for the air conditioner clogs up, and water leaks into the interior under the glove compartment. If this is the same problem, you need to have the clog cleared with a "snake" or with compressed air.

It's none of those things and yes it will kill your blower motor. It's a shit designed ac drain hose system which has some weird bend somewhere that makes the hose clog and back up constantly eventually spilling out around feet of both driver and passenger. Sometimes scalding hot water on your feet while your are driving. Some crack engineering going on down at Chrysler

Hi- we have a 2007 Dodge Caliber that starting taking on water this winter- filling up the footwell of the driver's side back seat- as stated in many other posts- same leak that could sustain goldfish. After reading all the reviews, we concluded it was the leak through the triangular panel just in front of the driver's rearview mirror. We took it to the Dodge dealer- they were familiar with the problem- and fixed it on the first try. Thanks all for posting about this problem!
