Hi,

I attached a pic to help you get an idea where it is. You would have to pull back the carpet to see it but it is on the passenger side bottom. If I recall, the 2017 has a grommet that is about an inch long that sticks through the bottom of the firewall. There isn't a long hose or anything like that.

Let me know if this helps.

Thank you for the prompt reply. I'm looking at the picture posted and it looks like the driver side in this picture due to the pedals on the left and it drips on the driver side, but you are saying it's on the passenger side? Just want to double check before I start pulling up carpet, lol. Every other truck I've had drips by the exhaust but not this one.

Hi,

Honestly, it is on the passenger side. What I have seen is because of the length of the drain, the water seems to drip where it wants. They had issues a few years before your vehicle where the grommet would leak and the water would soak the carpet. Ugh!

Here are the directions for replacement of the hose. Very vague.
