Water coming from under glove box!!!!
Guys so I've been dealing with this for a few weeks! As soon as these FL thunderstorms started I have found 3 TIMES that my passenger floor mat is DRENCHED with water! At first i thought it was the sunroof but after troubleshooting the leak it's definetly coming from under the glove compartment. I had my windshield swapped like 3 months ago and thought maybe it was done wrong they came by and "Claimed" it was all good then 2 days ago hop in my G and saw the hugested puddle!!! Help I can't take this any longer!

happened to me too. It was with car washes. I found that the issue was the rubber "seal" which sits ontop of the windshield at the bottom corners. I pushed mine into place and problem solved.

i had that same thing when i got mine, take it to the dealer and have them blow out the duct in the sunroof, that fixed mine. the sun roof has a duct up there that catches and re routes the water to under the car, but if it gets clogged, it redirects to the passenger compartment. ever since they blew some air in there i been fine.

I had this happen on a different car but what it was causing it was the drain for the A/C coil box which sits right above and behind the glove box. During long trips we would start seeing water to form in the passenger's floor area; the drain was pointing forward so the wind did not allow water to exit properly until it started freezing up. We installed an elbow and had the drain point down, matter solved. Like the previous poster says, you might want to make sure all drains are working properly.

I brought the headliner down opened the sunroof and poured water into the drains....no issue there it went straight down and came out the bottom of the car

Had this happen to me once. Clogged sunroof drain down the A pillar was likely the culprit but luckily seemed to clear itself. Had the car 8 years through plenty of rain before it did that and it never happened again.

Necromancer alert!
You realize this thread is six years old? And has been discussed many times in newer threads?
You were lucky the problem cleared itself. Usually, the firewall grommet through which the drain passes dry rots and tears, allowing water to leak into the passenger compartment.
