Problem overview

Some Jeep Liberty owners report experiencing water leaks on the passenger side floorboards, particularly when the air conditioning is running, which may indicate a clogged condensation drain tube. Additionally, some owners have discovered leaks originating from various areas, such as around the boot between the door and the body or from the glove box side. Water intrusion is not limited to the passenger side; some have noted leaks on the driver's side as well, suggesting a broader issue. Inspections have shown wet areas in the headliner near the "A" pillar and in the rear cargo compartment, underscoring the severity of the problem. During rainy weather, these leaks can saturate the carpet, necessitating removal and drying to prevent further damage. Troubleshooting these leaks can be time-consuming, requiring checks of multiple components, including the thermostat housing. Understanding the vehicle's design and drainage system is crucial for identifying the leak's source. In cases where access to the condenser box and potential dash removal is needed, seeking professional assistance may be advisable for effective diagnosis and resolution.
