We have a 2008 Nitro that recently had standing water in the front and rear passenger side. The carpeting and matts were soaked from the bottom up and the rubber matts on top were dry.
It happened twice now after heavy rain. Does anyone else have this issue and if so, how was it resolved.? Thanks[/B]

Welcome! Was the Nitro driven during this time? If so I have seen missing rubber plugs in the floorboard in other cars, cause this.

Thanks. It was parked at the time. I dropped it off at the dealer, they said they would need it for several days. I think it is from the wiper cowl, but not sure.

I am having this problem. I can see water coming in under the passenger air vent & running down the side of the glove box. Did you ever get this fixed & how? Please help me!
Do you guys have a sunroof? If the sunroof drains get plugged, this is the result. The drains run down the "A" pillars. If the drains get plugged, the water overflows the trough around the perimeter of the sunroof frame and can run down the inside of the A pillars and end up on the interior floor. Open your sunroof all the way, and you can see the trough for collecting water. The drains are located at the front corners. There could be debris that you can see, or possibly it has already made its way down the drain tube and plugged it. You can blow them out with air pressure, but be careful not to dislocate the tube from the frame. If you don't have the sunroof, forget what I just wrote.
