The drain is plugged. Could have mice built a nest under the dash that plugged the hole, I tell you this from experience on my wife's car.

Second on that, the engineers changed the design and it gets pugged up over time with dirt and debris. Have had to do mine as well- not hard but a real pain.

Terry is corect. Jeep/Dodge is a little difficult to find but can be. Look between firewall and frame on passenger side. When you find it, be prepared for a shower.

Brian, I would agree 100% with the others. One of my Fords had this happen too... If the condensation has no where to go, it spills into the compartment and for some reason it usually seems to be the passenger side.

These might help?? (wrong years, right idea):

shouldn't be anything a straightened coat hanger can't take care of.

+1 on the given problem, my dang Dodge pickup has the drain hose getting "out of whack" occasionally causing same thing.

I have nothing to add. That was going to be my suggestion. The only very slight possibility would be if it has been raining a lot where you are in PA (it hasn't much in VA). Some of the older Jeeps/Dodges could have bad weather seals between the passenger compartment and the road but if it hasn't rained much then go with the above (which is most likely)

drain may not be plugged, but instead the drain hose may have popped loose from the firewall so that it's draining into the floorboard. Happened on my Wrangler.

Look for a rubber hose on the passenger side footwell. Should be poking through the firewall.

Unplug it. Be sure to let me know if there is anythign else I can do to help.

poke it back through the firewall. :tongue:

Honestly I forget if it just goes through one of the holes, or if there is a coupler that it attaches too. But it should be fairly obvious when you get your head under there.
