I own a 92 Chrysler Lebaron Convertible and whenever I tell a family mechanic this issue, they give me funny looks...so hopefully somebody out there knows what I?m talking about!
Starting almost three years ago, WATER comes squirting out onto the front driver & passenger floors. There is pressure when the water comes out and it comes out all at once, NOT over a period of time. It?s definitely just water. Sometimes, it?s a little water and sometimes it?s a gush of water. Sometimes it?s in the summer, and sometimes it?s in the rainy season. It doesn?t happen too often but enough to drive me crazy when I have to soak it up, and blow dry the carpet! My air conditioner works just fine, and so does the heater, which is why I ruled out both of those...should I still be considering them as a possible cause?
Here?s where it gets weirder... just last March when it rained real heavily, there was enough water in my car from the front passenger carpet floor area to where it went all the way to the back passenger floor where there was a good gallon of standing water. Eventually it all dried up, but every now and then, my back passenger carpet mysterious starts to get wet on it?s on, as if it?s coming up from underneath the floor. Again, the amount rages from a small bit to the whole back floor being soaked. I?m positive there are no leaks in my convertible top or windows. that are causing this problem. In fact, I was vacuuming my dry carpets today on a nice sunny day, and all of a sudden, when I was done, I watched with my own eyes this circle of water start to rise above my carpet and get bigger in diameter. Could there still be water from the last flood that is stuck in some sort of cavity under the carpet? Thank you for your time.
