AC water run off into driver side floor
 
Every time I run my AC the runoff has been leaking inside the vehicle. I have this puddle of water (isn't coolant) that takes days to dry. Any help?

There is a condensate drain that is supposed to conduct that water to the outside of the vehicle. Sometimes it gets clogged with leaves/dirt. Look under the hood for a tube that comes out of the firewall and bends down and connects to nothing. That's probably the condensate drain. If you can reach it, try massaging it to work the dirt out. Leaves might feel crispy in there. The tube usually has a flattened end that can open if you squeeze it right allowing the crud to fall out.

i just bought my car during winter, i've had lots of water under my driverside carpet as well i had to take out the back seat and pull up the carpet and squeeze it all out, took a few days to dry, i noticed a small rust spot from the driver side back wheel well, but wasnt quite a hole, i figured it was just from snow melting, in winter i remember there being alot of icy water back there. its like the only spot my car has even a little bit of rust, i noticed with sebrings the wheel wells get very rusty :(

You've got a leak somewhere and outside water is getting in. It doesn't sound like yours is related to the problem in this thread. If your leak is not coming in around the windows where it's visible, then it's going to be a bear to find. First check carefully around all the weatherstrips and sealing devices on the drivers side. Maybe sit in the car while a friend squirts it with a hose.
If that doesn't do it, then use your detective skills to try to track down the leak. Water likes to run down hill.
