My 95 smelled bad and had wet front floor carpets due to leaks in the firewall. I had to pull back all the carpet and wire brush 1 large hole(half a dollar bill size) and 4 smaller coin size holes about where your toes would be when sitting and legs stretched out. To see the rust from outside the car....passenger side below the heater fan is a lip on the fire wall, just below it is where you will find rot. i used Goop after bondo on the holes all through out this area side to side and NO MORE WET FLOOR !!! waddamesstho

I wonder if this is what is going on with my 95 Grand Am. If so, about how much would the mechanic charge me to fix it? To goop and bondo it up as you say? My drivers side floor is ALWAYS saturated, especially after rainy weather and the inside of the car gets foggy and windsheild needs to be scraped in the winter! Very annoying, I have to roll up my pant legs everytime I get in!
Kind Regards,
Sissy

Hi, I have the same problem with my '92 Grand Am, wet floor on the passenger side in the front and in the back. It's water because it happens only when it rains. I was actually able to eliminate the problem in the front by running a bead of black silicone sealant along the bottom of the windshield where the glass meets the weatherstripping (on the outside). I tried the same thing on the rear window, but that didn't solve the problem. So now I have a wet floor on the passenger side in the back, but not in the front. Rainwater is getting in somehow, I just have to find out where it's coming in. I'm guessing the weatherstripping on the door, or maybe the trunk. I'll try to post something if I actually fix it.

Thanks for the info. I took the carpet out on the passenger side and caulked with silicone everywhere I could reach. Under the hood I was able to do the top of the heater fan but HOW do I get to the lip on the underside???? The carpet on the drivers side is soaked also, will this fix help that side? I already used clear silicone sealant on the lower edge of the windshield and used foam weatherstripping on the doors and trunk. No more leak in the trunk. Also have electrical problems, no tailights, new bulbs, where is the relay switch that I keep hearing about??

I have a 94 grand am and I had wet floor in the front both sides. I used silicone around windshield and on a few places on weatherstripping where all 4 doors meet roof. No more leak on passenger side but drivers side still soaked (after rain) so now I'm going to pull back the carpet like nopropmtb did. No other way to be sure where its coming from, I'll relate what I find. Had a little water in trunk (weatherstipping in rough shape) but I just drilled a hole in lowest point in tire well to drain for now.

Hi, I have a 2003 Grand Am and just noticed tonight that there's water standing under the passenger seat and in the back floorboard on the passenger side. I felt everywhere and can't find anything else in the car that is even the least bit damp. I've read all the posts here but they all pertain more to the front floorboard. Anyone have any ideas? I live in Illinois and we did get snow this weekend. Thanks, in advance, for any help or clues that you guys may have.

there should be a recall on these cars with all the dng water, this has been happening in my 93 for5 years, nobody can find where it is coming from, and i have done everything this site has said and still water. all water seals replaced, what do they all have the 2 quater and small whole in them under the carpet, mind did too. and now my fan will not work, sometimes it comes on and most time don't. the black lide was off under the hood by the right frount under the hood, now that they put cap on it, now heater fan don't want to work.HELPPPPPPPPP
