    I had water dripping out from the dashboard, running onto the floor of my Prius today, anyone every had this happen to them.
    I've drove this car with A/C on before and never noticed this problem, but this evening when returning home one of my floor mats actually had standing water on it when I removed it! YIKES

    Sounds like the drain for the evaporator case is clogged.

    By ramps or a lift. More than likely, you'll have to find it from under the car, around the heater box.

    Pull back the carpet from the top left corner on the passenger side floor, see if you find it there.

    If your car is under warranty bring it to the dealer
