Why does my car make a sloshing sound when I Turn on the AC?

If you are really hearing a sloshing sound, then it is very likely water trapped in the AC evaporator drain pan. This would be because your AC drain tube is clogged. Find it and check it.

Why is the passenger side of my car wet?

If you notice a seemingly-random puddle on your passenger side floor mat, it could be a bad A/C evaporator drain. A similar problem could occur with the car’s heater system.
