1996 Chevrolet Lumina Van. Water began to appear in the interior driver and passenger compartment. My mechanic replaced the drain hose and the problem got worse. We now have at least a pint to a quart of water in the passenger compartment whenever we run the a/c or heater. The next step is to pull the dash, an $1100 expense, to see what is the problem. Do you have any other suggestions prior to this step?

You may have a cracked housing around the air-conditioning unit under the dash. If this is your problem, removing the dash is probably your only solution. Before you do anything more, have your mechanic check to see if the drain itself is partially plugged.
