VF SSV Water leaking ALL over front passenger floor

[SSVMicko]

Hi fella's, yep I have exactly the same issue with my 2/14 SSV Redline, and also discovered by my Girlfriends handbag being saturated on the passenger side floor...

I have booked it in for 2 weeks time and the service advisor has informed me of the issue that has been discussed on here. I'm keen to fix it myself but does anyone know exactly how to do it? I'm thinking a dehumidifier for a couple of days and not running the A/C (lucky it has cooled down a bit in Sydney).

I'll have a look on the net also but if any details are available it would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Recall 14-CS-02 released today for VF/WN. It's an inspection of the A/C drain grommet, and if the foam seal has been damaged (thus causing a water leak), the foam seal is replaced with a rubber one. Also carpet may be replaced if smelly/mouldy.

Letters to be sent out from May for affected vehicles.

Hey guys,
I bought a VF SS-V sedan in June and I'm having the same issue. I drove it back home about 400k's in the rain, when I got it home noticed the carpets in the passenger side back seat was soaked through. Same thing, Holden said A/C I said there was a heap of water for just the a/c and that I drove it home in the rain but they were adement it was the a/c. So apparently it has had the grommet repaired however, just a day after recent heavy rain the front passenger seat is wet again which would suggest that it is not just an a/c problem. I was wondering if anyone has got an update on a possible cause and/or repair. Any information would be appreciated.

Thanks in Advance.

We have to check every VF that comes in for this fault, if its been leaking and has damaged the carpet.. we replace the carpet
If its just started to leak we just replace the AC drain tube foam block for a rubber grommet

Yep 12/2015 for me too. Car fcking smells. Dropping it into the dealership tomorrow.
Have two rust 'dots' in my carpet now from the metal studs under the holden floor mats. You best believe i'll be getting them to dry and clean the carpet!

Traded in my 2015 VF SSV ute for a 2016 VF2 SSVR ute early this year, when I took the passenger side floor mat out, I noticed it was rather damp but not soaked. Guess it is something which needs to be checked from time to time.
