2006 Dodge Grand Caravan. The carpet is soaking wet under the driver and the front passenger seats. What could cause this?

If it smells like anti freeze your heater core is bad. If it's just water then your windshield or doors are leaking.

Smells like rotten eggs but car runs fine

does your car have AC.... ? ac problems can make a eggy smell also a damaged catalytic converter do the same. eggy smell can be the gas from the ac leaking out. you would need to have this check as it can do harm to your lungs..

Litters of water accumulating in the foot well of the rear passenger side seats which can soak your feet. There is dampness in front and other side. We have no idea of where this water is coming in from....

Depends on where the water is coming from. The 2 most often causes of water buildup is either the heater core is leaking or the AC condensate drain tube is blocked. If the heater core was leaking, you'd smell antifreeze or see steam coming from the vents while driving. The AC condensate drain tube lets condensation water to drip overboard from the housing. This tube is on the bottom of the AC case on the firewall side under the hood. Sometimes you need only pinch it to open it to drain out the water buildup..

My 1995 Honda Civic LX Passenger Floor was soaked with Water After Heavy Rains

Hi when I work for the Honda dealer 15 years ago We found that when a passengers side is getting wet , My best guess is you have air conditioning in your car. I would bet you the problem is the ac drain hose is clogged, it is on the passengers side under the dash, if you look up where you're feet would be just follow the rug up and you will see the hose remove the hose, be careful removing it from the condenser nipple because it is plastic and can break , use an air house and blow any dirt and debris that maybe clogging the hose . When you remove the hose have a Cup or small bucket to catch any water that's remaining in the condenser , This is a common problem . Once you have those cleared and the condenser cleared the problem should stop. Remember to put the drain hose back on , ps you do not need to put a clamp on the hose it is not under any pressure, after you fix the problem I would remove the seats and pull the rug out and hang it to dry, wipe the floor of any water , you may want to put a fan in the car to dry it out, because if you do not get everything dry your car will start so smell like mold and mildew, and the floor of you car will start to rust up, so get it dry, I hope this helps, I promise you that that's where the waters coming from if you have air condition, just remember water gos down hill not up. Let me know how you make out.

Coolant leaking somewhere unknown, have to add to reservoir every 3 days or so, strong antifreeze smell with a/c on. water sloshing sound in passenger side dashboard. bad heater core?

sound like a bad heater core! the heater core is like a small radiator that is usually locaded in the dashboard on the passenger side. now if the leaking is really bad you are going to see water dripping by the front passenger tire or if it gets really bad it may leak inside the car. in order to fix this problem the HEATER CORE must be replaced. good luck

First see if coolant level is full. Do you get a funny smell &/or film on windshield when heater defrost is on? If no to all most likely plugged evap drain for a/c need to unplug so it will drain outside the van. If yes to any you have bad heater core.
