SOURCE: 1997 Dodge Grand Caravan water leak.

It'd be under the dash, close to the middle and poking through the firewall behind the engine, usually passenger side.

SOURCE: Dodge 2000 minivan,water pump leaking

Make sure it's cool, pop the radiator cap, Remove the shield on the passenger side between the tire and front of engine. Relieve the tension on the serp belt,draw yourself a diagram of the pulleys and belt routing in case the sticker is gone on the strut tower, remove the serp belt. Take the bolts out of the pulley on the front of the water pump (3). Remove the lower radiator hose at the front cover to drain the coolant. Remove the 6 mm bolts holding the water pump to the front cover housing. tap on the pump with a rubber hammer. Install a new gasket on the new pump, and a weap hole diverter in the pump (round black about hte size of a quarter), use old one if there's no new one. Install pupm and tighten bolts snug with a 1/4" ratchet. Install pulley and 3 bolts. Install belt, top off radiator with 50/50 mix green coolant. start engine and run to operating temperature,make sure the belt is seated in all of the pulleys and is running true, radiator fans should come on. Shut engine down and let cool overnight. Check level in radiator and overflow bottle, top off as necessary.

SOURCE: I HAVE A 99 DODGE CARAVAN 3.3L COOLANT IS

Where is it leaking from? The radiator its self, the heater core found under the dash, or some where in between? Look for pools of coolant under the front floor mats, If you find it there, then the heater core needs to be replaced. Next time it happens, Pull over immediately and look under the car to see where it is leaking, (look from more than one angle). Or park it over some clean cardboard, where ever the stains are, will give you a clue of where to look for the problem. And most easy, Bring it back to the mechanic who installed the new radiator., Most legitimate mechanics warrant their work and yours may be responsible in some way, or at least be familiar with your particular Caravan.
The solution is to locate and fix the leak, but also perform a thouro cooling system flush. The system bay have serious dirt, clay, or corrosion that is causing issues with proper flow and pressure, thus causing leaks.
And Always Pull Over when it begins to OverHeat! Heat damage to an engine can spell Death to any Car, even Caravans. Good Luck.

2000 Dodge Durango water passenger side a lot of water in floor board.

Does the water smell like coolant? Are you losing any coolant from your radiator/reservoir? If so, you have a heater core leaking. It's a large job to replace, requiring removal of the dash.
If it doesn't smell like coolant, it may be that the drain tube from your a/c evaporator is plugged, and condensation is leaking into the passenger compartment. Look for the drain tube on the engine side of the firewall, in front of the passenger and down low. It should be a rubber tube that has nothing connected to it.
Other possibilities are leaking sealant around the windshield, bad weatherstripping around the doors, and leaks from sunroof (if you have one).

I have a 2000 Dodge Caravan. Should there be antifreeze in the water on the ground where the AC water drains on the ground after use? It sat for a week and there is still water/antifreeze leaking on the...

No , but whoever did your A/C probably put a Dye in the system to detect any leaks, an it is green, which is the same color as most coolant/antifreeze.. But if your coolant level is not getting low, i wouldn't worry about it, because it is probably the Dye. Now if your coolant level is getting low, you may want to have the system pressure checked.. Good Luck.. Also it may be your Heater Core.. On some vehicles, the heater core, an the evaporator( where a/c leaks), or sometimes in the same casing unit. But again, you will need to have your coolant system pressure checked..

Water leaking into passenger compartment in a 2000 dodge caravan , i think it is the drain tube from the windshield drain.

If you are having problems with the water in the passenger side of van during the dry weather days then it's the drain pan on the evaporator housing. It is located in behind the blower motor. The drain tube for the evaporator is on the passanger side of van next to the fire wall (black tube ) hanging downword. Use a tie strap to insert into the tube to clean it out. Hope this will help you.

My 2002 dodge caravan has a wet front passenger side floor

Do you have A/C on your Caravan?
It may for a blocked A/C drain tube.
Look under the passenger area from under the vehicle for the drain area and clear the tube.......just go as high into the tube as necessary to clear it .....if you go too high you could damage the evaporator in the heater,A/C assembly and....watch out for water coming your way!

Water leaking into the floorboard.

Check to see if the water drain for the A/C system is plugged.
Look under the vehicle for a drain tube just ahead of the passengers feet.
Try to clear it.
Watch out for a flow of water if you do clear it!
Do not push higher into the drain than is needed to clear it.

If the heater core was leaking you would have antifreeze on the floor....not water.
Yes,the coolant would go down if the heater core was leaking.

Wet on Passenger side floor when AC is on

Auto ac units have an outside drain for the condensation. If you ever noticed a car running and it looks like it's leaking something on a hot day it's the condensed water from the ac unit draining. What you have is a clogged or disconnected drain hose.
You need to find the hose and drain and reconnect them. Sounds simple, good luck.
