If it's wet even on dry days then it sounds like the heater core is seeping...

Are you running your A/C alot where you live?? If so it is most likely the drain is plugged, and is leaking into the passenger floor. This is a very common problem with many Jeeps. But check you coolant level. If it is fine, then it is not your Heater core, and almost for sure the drainage for you A/C is plugged.

In the future, run your A/C for a few minutes every month...yes even in the winter. This will keep all thos fittings lubricated with the oil/refrigerant in the lines. You will avoid a leaking system, especially when you need it. More important than being comfortable in the summer is having the heat working in the winter. Run the heat for a few minutes during the summer months for the same reason. The anit-freeze has lubricants in it to which keep parts from leaking/corroding. These tips should help keep your A/C & Heating systems trouble free for years to come. My Jeep GC is 10 years old/111K plus and knock on wood her A/C and heating systems have been trouble free! The brakes, that's a different story! been thru 4 sets of discs/pads due to poor engineering on Jeeps part but hey...i still think it's a great Jeep! -Ed

I've had the same problem, But I had a bad door seal. I've found that using "Damprid" helps. I use two of the bucket "Damprid's" in my jeep.

Its hot here in Florida so the water evaporates in my jeep , the damprid gets all the moisture into the bucket and I throw the water out when its full.

I've been doing that untill I can save the money to get a newseal (bad one has a tear in it and needs to be replaced)
