Ran my Grenny through the car wash today… photo shows where soap started draining down from passenger side dash near floorboard.
Can anyone shed any light on this for me?

Never once saw this during multiple car washes. But this year I am only hand washing - even though I used “touchless washes,” the pressure is pretty high and they do a crappy job. I think that’s why I had to redo the nose wrap and Exoshield- and it always made my door buttons stick.
 
Isn't there a open vent above the passenger side that is open unless you have recirculation on. There was a recall for some that were missing a cover so when it rained and you were driving, water would come in. Could this be the source of issues

I bet this is it. Without soap... I likely would have never noticed it as the carpet is black and it wasn't a tremendous amount of water. Thanks for you comment.
 
I just took mine in for warranty and 1 year maintenance. I had below list to have them fix.

1. Door footbath problem.
2. Safari windows leaking onto the dash.
3. Small water puddle in center of front passenger floor. (seems to be your issue).
4. Water intrusion at the top of the large rear door. Water would get past a split seal at top of rear cargo door and run down the inside glass.
5. Door handle recall if parts available.
6. Windshield replacement. Glad I bought the glass warranty.

They fixed all, and knew about everyone except the rear door water problem. But they replaced all the seals except for the front doors,(they ran out of door seals). Go figure, that was the main one I wanted fixed. Just waiting for seals to be re-stocked.

So the water in the front floorboard is from the fresh air vent and is a known issue. They should be able to get you fixed up. Next hard rain after the front door seals are replaced will be the test for all water leaks. Fun times fellas!
