Some customers may comment on water leaking on the front passenger side floor of the vehicle. This leak would occur under high ambient temperatures and high humidity situations when the customer has the air conditioning on high. Leaks will appear to be coming from the HVAC module where the heater core cover and lower case come together. Also, some customers may comment on water droplets blowing out of the vents when the A/C is on high.
Cause
This condition may be due to water condensing in the HVAC case that adheres to the upper surface in the tongue and groove area of the lower case and then leaking out.
Correction
Install the foam gasket between the heater core cover and the lower HVAC case at the location of the leak using the procedure listed below.
Reply to Eric's Post: I appreciate you taking the time to gather this information for me but i needed to know where to find the drain tube on the vehicle.
The ac drain tube is on passenger side of the firewall, near the bottom behind engine, its tough to see from the top sometimes, it usually has a short rubber hose on it pointing to the ground for drainage. The most likely cause of your concern is not a plugged drain tube, but the tsb i previously gave you. Good Luck, and let me know if i can help you further, thanksEric
