Post subject:  Water Leak Behind Dash

I noticed a "funky" smell (like old wet socks) in the Jeep a while back but didn't think anything of it. The smell did not go away for a few weeks.

Then I noticed the carpet under the drivers side front floor mat was totally soaked with water. I also found that an envelope on the dash would get wet (during rain) if it was slipped between the dash top trim piece and the windshield.

I checked the drains on the sunroof - they are clear and not leaking.

Not sure what to check next.

Anyone else ever dealt with this before?

Jeep is a 2005 Liberty Sport CRD with sunroof.

Thanks!

I work on GM vehicles and I have seen a lot of drain tubes fall off of the sun roof tray's, or the tubes will get a little cloged and back up and over flow down the A and B pillers and end up on the carpet. Im not certian how the KJ drain tubes run, just an Idea !! :wink: :wink:

the A/C drain tube comes out the fire wall right behind the Accumulators on the passenger side. check there, its possible the evaporator pan full due to the tube being clogged.

If it were a Wrangler, I'd say A/C drain tube clogged. But since it's not, I'd have to say it might be worth checking, but it's likely not it.
