2 small puddles of water on driver side mats after sitting overnight

[WheezeMD]

My 2021 Model 3 Dual Motor is 10 months old. I have had 3 episodes of 2 small puddles of water on the driver side all weather mat after sitting overnight. 2 episodes were also associated with a vinegar smell and had the air filter replaced and Kool It cleaner at the Tesla Service Center. The last time 3 months ago I had TSC check about the puddles of water but they could not find any problem. It did it last night again but there is no smell from the AC. I did drive through a severe rainstorm yesterday for about 20 minutes. I don’t remember driving in a rainstorm the day before the other 2 episodes. Not sure what is going on here. Any help would be great.

Try using a tissue paper to locate the origin of the drips, dabbing under the dash, around the door jamb, and under the seat.

Is it coming from closer to the door or the center console? Was your car parked outside in the rain or in a garage?

Center console- one small puddle near the false pedal and the other just to the left of the accelerator. Also the car is kept in the garage.

I know this riddle. A very small man hung himself to death under your steering wheel, standing on a melting block of ice.

Every night even when you don't drive it? Being in Vegas, I'd surmise it's your AC unless the answer to my first question is yes. I have similar puddles here in Texas where temps are normally high this time of year and humidity is also high.
