The A/C condensate hose is probably plugged up. Not fun to get at, it helps if you're a contortionist.... it's on the bottom of the black plastic evaporator housing. You can get at it under the vehicle, passenger side, just forward of the firewall, directly above the frame. Little black rubber nipple sticks down about 2" and it gets plugged up with debris which causes the evaporator housing to flood causing water to overflow onto the carpet. Use a plastic drinking straw to unplug the nipple. You'll probably get a face full of water when you remove the debris The evaporator is just inside the housing above the nipple and if you use something metal to clean the nipple, you might damage the evaporator. Have fun!
