My car leaks only when the air conditioner is on. On the drivers side it leaks hot water the passenger side leaks cold water. It leaks from under the dash. What should I do?

Hello there, it sounds like the drain tube for the A/C system is clogged. You may be able to see it under the car sticking down about half way between the front tires. It is usually a clear half inch tube that allows condensation to drain out of the A/C system. They get clogged because of their location being under the car and exposed to the elements and road dirt.
