    Well I have on 09 access cab with around 2000 km's. I first noticed about a week or so ago when there was crazy condensation on the inside. I got looking around and realized under the driverside front floor mat was sopping wet and I mean wet, like a puddle. Well it had been raining a ton and I thought maybe some way or some how I left the window open or had the door cracked over night and water got in. Well I shop vac'd the water out, dry it out with a heater and said if it happens again I'll know theres a problem......

    Well guess what? I got a soggy floor again, gonna call the dealer after work tomorow but I'm choked!

    Any one heard of this before? Common problem? Easy fix?

    Any info will help, thanks.

    I have the same problem in my 03. Dealer has had it several times but can not figure out where the water is coming from. I am curious to know if someone does have a solution.

    I'd check the fit of the doors and how the seals line up on top. They will leak if they do not have the proper pressure applied in the exactly the proper place.

    In my 08 DC the drivers side floor mats would be wet after a rain especially if I was parked with the nose pointing down hill. The dealer had to call in someone who specialized in water leaks, he eventually tracked it down to a seam just below the rear window. The seam runs vertically
    down the back of the cab about 2 inches in from the side of the rear window. There is a seam on both sides. In my truck it was leaking where the seam met rear window. They filled the area with some sort of sealant and i have not had any more water.

    There is a TSB on '09 Access cab for a leaking issue at the courtesy light. You could check and see if this is the source of your leak. Even though your floor is wet water travels downhill. Just a thought.

    That looks nasty. Which side of the truck is the heater core located?

    This thread highlights one of the main causes of the wet passenger side floor.

    Not to say that these other factors also don't occur.

    This is a dead issue. The OP posted in November 2009.

    Correction ... 2008. I can't read.

    I have a 2007 access cab and my windows are closed and the factory floor mats were replaced with Husky Liners
