Water leaking from under the car can be normal, especially on hot days when you’ve been cranking the A/C at full blast.

What to do if you have a water leak in the front?

But, just because it is water you are finding in the front, don’t discount leaks in the rear. Number one is the 3rd brake light. Then the rear window. Check to see if the rear footwell is wet as well. If you have a sun roof, then that is a prime culprit. Start with the 3rd brake light.
