Noticed 4 inches of water in my rear passenger footwell this morning. After getting it all out, the floor felt like a water bed. Had to peel back the flooring to find rust soup. Another 2 inches of rusty ass water.

Any ideas?

Check the spare tire well in the trunk. If it's full of water, you probably have a leak in the trunk lid or maybe around one of the taillights. If not, you likely have a leak on one of the rear doors.

Trunk is fine, have a subwoofer set up in there. That was my first concern. Absolutely no moisture in there. The doors all look fine to me, all the gaskets look good. I think it's coming through the HVAC floor vent.
