Question Water on my foot?

So I was wearing sandles, made a hard turn, and something liquid went all over my foot. I'm pretty sure it was water. The A/C was on low for about 30 mins. There was a lot of water, enough to fill half of a regular size class or more. Kinda confused. Thanks

From the good ol' days when I was a lot younger; this happened frequently. It was a drain hose connected to the A/C under the dash that would clog up due to sediment, etc. The water would back up(?) and overflow(or something) back inside the vehicle. I would take a broken radio antenna and rotor-rooter the sediment out of the hose.

Sounds like your condensation tube is clogged. Those things can easily get clogged or kinked. You live in Houston where it is very humid and when you don't run your A/C on MAX(recirculating cabin air) you get more condensation, and when you combine that with not running the fan on high, you tend to get even more condensation. Just get under your passenger side firewall and look for a tube just sticking down for what looks like no particular reason. I'll bet you find it has clogged with something. You'll know for sure when it gets unclogged because a bunch of water will run out(probably a cup or so, maybe a little more).

Hope this helps.
