Under the dash is where the heater core, AC. Are located. They are enclosed in plastic. There is either a crack or a leak coming from there allowing some of the water to remain in the vehicle. I hate to say it, but you need to craw under the dash and start looking. I wish there was an easier way, but that is it.

Okay,

after a long day of disassembly, I removed the carpet and found that the carpet had apporx 2.5 gallons of water absorbed into the foam. I ran the car with out the carpet and found no more leaks. So problem solved and carpet is now dry.

Thank you for your support!
