Why is the carpet wet? Todd !!! ?

[Mojave Nunzio]

Well being new to the Jeep world, and I'm glad that I caught it when I was vacuuming the carpets in my Gladiator I lifted up the jeep floor mat on the front drivers side and to my surprise the carpet was WET, Yesterday I went through the no touch car wash that has high pressure sprayers that spay up to clean the under carriage. Well as my stomach churned because I could not figure out where the water came from and after I took the shopvac to suck the water out of the carpet it dawned on me that the rubber stem mounted to the bottom of the floor mat was not seated all the way where it seals to the metal floor. Well the carpet is dry now and when I put the floor mat back in I made sure that the rubber stem clicked into place, but I'm going to keep my eye on this just to make sure it is not an actual leak, or has this happened to anyone else?

Those are your drain plugs, so if they aren't plugged, that'd be the first place I'd look. The second question I'd ask: do you have a hard top or a soft top?

I have a hard top but I'm pretty sure that the plug was not seated to the metal floor, but I'm going to check again after the next rain or car wash.

Yes the only place wet was right under the drivers floor mat so I'm sure it came up through the drain plug.
