Why does your 1991 Jeep Cherokee loose coolant water which collects in the passenger footwell?

A very common cause of loosing engine coolant and having it leak into the interior foot wells (either side, but generally passenger), is a leaking heater core. This can happen even when not using the heater, since there is almost always a small amount of flow to reduce sludge or corrosion accumulation. Replacing the heater core generally fixes the problem. Note that on most newer cars this also involves the air conditioning, so it is generally a shop job to be legal and environmentally conscious. You could have an A/C mechanic remove the coolant, then do the rest yourself before a recharge, but make sure you know what you're doing first. You don't want leaks, and it's a big job. Oh - if you're really lucky, it could just be the hoses leaking where they connect, but that' not normal since they generally leak down the firewall in the engine compartment.
