Default 2006 Caravan Leaking behind rear fender

My 2006 Caravan is leaking water or something from two lines behind the rear passenger side fender? What are those lines for and what is the possible problem?

Thank you.

Is the leak coolant or water from the a/c? If it a coolant leak, you may want to do a pressure test.

Its clear and orderless, so I think its water. I also heard a creaking noise that just started back in that area, I don't know if its just a coinincedence or part of the problem.

If the leak is in the rear passengerside area and you haven't had your A/C on- it is no doubt the tube going into your rear evaporator unit leaking --- If you have been running your unit it could be water--Are you still cold air ? If you stop getting cold air I'll bet on a leak-- If so it is an expensive repair Bill --Minnesota

It must be the AC dripping. I guess I never noticed that it came from the back of the van. I assumed it always came from the front somewhere by the engine, I didn't know they stuck the AC way in the back.

Thanks for the help.

When they have rear a/c, they have 2 evaporators-front & rear
