I have the same problem and the dealership said they are having a hard time figuring it out! Very frustrating. I am getting a ton of water that I soak up every day and it is completely saturated. It is all due to the AC somehow! The dealership said they had to completely tear apart the dashboard to figure out what could be the problem. They feel it is the HVAC module and are completely replacing it. However, they did not guarantee that this was the issue! Over $1,000 for everything! This seems like it should be a recall issue or something that I am not completely responsible for since it is happening in other vehicles....especially when they don't know for sure what it is and if this fix will completely fix it. What to do????

I'm writing you to see if you have come up with a solution to the a/c leaking water. My car is a 2008 malibu, and I am experiencing the same problem, and now my car is starting to stink. If you could right me back I would greatly appreciate it.

2008 Chevy Malibu, approximately 70,000 miles. There is a massive amount of water pooling into the rear passenger floorboard, we cannot keep up with removing the water. I see that several people have complained about this,and I am wondering why there is not a recall on this issue?

Still having the issue with water on the floorboard
Looks like the last email on this thread was from 2016. I recently inherited a 2009 Chevy Malibu and it is having the same issue with water in the rear floorboard when the air conditioner is on.
Has their been a recall or a fix to this issue. It is reallly annoying and smelly!!
Thanks,
Kim

Same frustrating issue
I've had my 2008 Malibu since 2010 and have had the same issue forever. I've taken it to the dealer ship multiple times and they can't find anything or figure it out. If this many people are having the exact same issue and in different locations, how is this not a recall? My car smells and living in Fl, mold and mildew also comes with hot, dark, wet spots. I've had the carpets deep cleaned and the water removed several times already. Now, the interior is always humid, damp and clammy even when it's cold. If anyone has a successful resolution, please advise.
Thank you
Thank you
