water leak on passenger side under dash
hi, i am new here to the site and i signed up to see if anyone else out there may have this problem/has had this problem and might know what could be wrong.
i have a 2000 Dodge Neon ES that is having some water leak issues. the leak started almost a year ago and its not getting any better. its on the passenger side under the dash. it only comes in after a really hard rain and when i drive it and make right turns. i had to have the blower motor replaced this past fall due to water coming in and ruining it. when i had it taken in for its last oil change last month, they told me they would have to take out the dash to see where the leak is coming from and it would cost roughly $700 which i really dont want to have to spend, especially since its not guaranteed they would find the problem. im really started to get frantic because ive had this car for 5 years and its been a fantastic car, doesnt have many miles on it ( 51,154 ) and i just dont want my floor to rust/rot.
if anyone could help me or give me an idea of what could be wrong, i would greatly appreciate all the help and advice i can get. thank you for reading.

the cylindrical shaped object you see water coming out of/strange noises does have to do with your a/c and heat. that is the blower motor which i personally had to get replaced with a new one since water was getting inside of it and ruined it. i just dont understand why water is getting in. it seems im not the only person having this issue.

that has to be comin in thru your windshield, theres no places on the firewall for wires or hoses to come in on the passenger side... my guess is your weather stripping is dry rotted on the bottom of your windshield, leaking into the inside of the dash and into your blower motor. eithere that, or a previous owner cut on the firewall like an idiot.
