Problem overview

Some Lincoln Continental owners report experiencing water accumulation in the rear passenger carpet, which may be attributed to issues such as leaks from the windshield seal, clogged sunroof drains, or a blocked condensation drain from the AC evaporator coil. When the air vent gasket is suspected as the cause, owners should inspect it for signs of damage or wear that could allow water to enter the vehicle. To effectively address this issue, some owners find it necessary to pull back the carpet, dry the affected area thoroughly, and conduct a water test using a hose to check for leaks. Timely maintenance and repairs are crucial for preventing water leaks and ensuring the vehicle's interior remains dry and undamaged.
