    This morning i came out to start my truck and noticed a pretty large puddle of water in my passenger side floor mat. it rained a little bit last night but nothing compared to the hurricanes and storms this trucks been trough before. the water appeared to drip down from behind the glove box, and idea what it is or how to fix it?

    Pull off your plastic cowl panel and make sure the drains are not clogged. If they are it can allow the water to go down through the air intake for the hvac.

    This has happened in my truck 4 times now. Everything in the cab was dry except passenger floor mat. This morning 10/09/17 I found the floor mat full of water. Took to dealership. They called a few hours later and said water was coming from the antenna on the roof, running across the headliner and the pillar?..beats the piss out of me. I’ve checked the truck throughly each time, headliner has always been dry and no staining

    Dealership advised there was “service bulletin “ on the antenna leak.

    Common problem from shit building up on the cowl, leaking through the cabin filter onto the floor. Inspect the cabin filter for moisture.

    Could be a windshield or AC evap moisture drain as well.
