Answer
Hello,

What you describe sounds like a leaking heater core. Word of warning, don't let any pets ride in the car and keep the kids away from the passenger floor.

In fact, until this is fixed and the carpet is sucked with a shp vac and shampooed any one with their feet on the floor must remove their shoes before going into a house.
