2002 dodge dakota club cab p/u has serious water leak to pass side floor. Dealer has had interior out of truck 4 times w/o fixing problem. I am personally aware of many other dakota owners with same exact problem. This appears to be a model wide defect and dodge has no interest in dealing with damaged owners. Could cause eleectric short/problems as wiring/wiring connections run under carpet on this side of truck. Dealer must have known of leak and failed to disclose to internet buyer and did best to minimize appearance of dampness by "shampooing" carpets for delivery - very dishonest!!!!!!!!!

Passenger side floor fills with water until it wicks through the carpet completely saturating the area.
Consumer states that she and husband have been everywhere to try to get help for 2002, dodge, dakota pick. Truck fills up with water, and no one can find out where the water is coming from. Consummer states that they had windows/seals/vents, and whole truck gutted out a number of times, but the problem was still there. Truck has been serviced 9 times, 6 of those times for water damage. This problem has baffled the mechanics that tried to fix the problem.
