Where is the puddle, on the back seat or on the floor? If it's on the seat then it's probably coming from the rear window (or somewhere above) And is it a puddle or a leak? Is it there when you get in the car or after you're driving??? More details might help us help you...

The drain tube for the A/C that comes out under the car (where you see the little puddle of water when you stop and have been running the A/C) had clogged up because we were visiting some of her relatives and they lived out dirt roads. It backs up inside of the car in the floors if it gets clogged up and all they do is run something up that tube and all of the water comes pouring out but now you have to have your carpets cleaned and dried out.

^^^ could be that or your sunroof drain pipes that go down from the roof through the C pillars and out the bottom of the quarters could be clogged.

when the a/c is running im assuming it was throwing the water out to the back floor panel. i cleaned it once and then it happened again. i dont know if its because the tube that runs to the rear a/c is loose and when i get passengers in the back when they step on it they knock it off from where its connected. the insallation of the carpet is what seems to be holding alot of water in it.

tried it and no leak. oddly the water is no longer there....i think i might have unclogged it when i last tried to clean the tube. so problem might be solved as of now, if it happens again ill take it to the shop.
