What owners wrote

Pools of water under removable floor mats on front driver & passenger floors. Carpet is rotted & smells of mold/mildew. Floor under driver seat buckles under driver weight(120 lbs) electrical box under passenger seat is sitting in water. Brought car to dealer for unrelated warranty items & advised them of water. I was told to open convertible top & reclose as that would probably resolve.

Reported at 30,000 miles, December 2008 Injury

Rug on front passenger side is very wet. Just forward of the seat, just inside of the door sill. Appears to be water, not coolant. Unknown source. Door rubber seals are fine, as are window channels, door drain slots are clear.
