NOTE: This bulletin applies to LHD Liberty vehicles built prior to August 10, 2001 (MDH 0810XX), and to Wrangler vehicles built prior to March 01, 2005 (MDH 0301XX).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION
The customer may experience a wet front passenger floor or floor carpet. This condition may occur due to water (A/C condensate) from the HVAC assembly drain tube. As A/C condensate leaves the HVAC drain tube, it may run back along the outside of the HVAC drain tube, enter the passenger compartment, and run under the front floor carpet on the passenger side. This condition may occur most often while the vehicle is being driven.
DIAGNOSIS
Inspect for the source of the water leak. Determine if the passenger side of the front floor carpet is wet because of air conditioning condensate from the HVAC drain tube. Inspect the HVAC assembly drain tube for the presence of a drain hose. If a HVAC assembly drain hose is not present, and the A/C condensate from the drain tube is the cause of the water leak, then perform the Repair Procedure.

I know this is an old thread, but does anybody know if this service bulletin was possibly a recall?? I just found out my TJ is doing the same thing and when I inspected the discharge hose, it's a straight hose out of the firewall. According to the service bulletin it should be pointing down to prevent the water from leaking back into the cabin.
