Default Water leaking into car when AC is on... HELP!

Hey all. I just got my AC refilled. Now, when I am sitting in my "Cool" car, water will start dripping and sometimes pour out are the passenger side and at the middle of the car near my gas pedal. What could be causing this? Anyone????

There's a drain hose that runs from the HVAC unit through the firewall. Sometimes it cloggs and leaks water into the car. If yo get down on the passenger side you should be able to see it.You can use some compressed air to clear it out.

Well, sometimes it just drips every now and then, but other times, it's like a solid stream for a few secs. Good enough to get your foot wet.

What do you guys think

I have this same problem. Were you able to fix this by using compressed air as the post stated? thx

either the hose mentioned above it clogged, or is disconnected. AC evaporators remove moisture from the air, that is the water dripping. Clean the tube and make sure it is connected.
