Post Leaking fluid from behind the front drivers side wheel?

It looks to be washer fluid, but I can't be sure. Blue liquid coming out of the bottom of the drivers side front fender. Is this a common thing? Is this where the evaporator tray for the AC is located as well?

Any help helps.

Yup... there have been some cracked tanks (assuming you didn't overfill it).

There was also someone from the UK who posted that he had a problem like this a while back. It wasn't the tank that was cracked but apparently one of the hoses that connect the tank to the wiper. There is a plastic T connector that I think was cracked. In any case, the dealer should fix this under warranty (assuming you still have one). Otherwise, I think you have to go in from the wheelwell to get to the parts that need repair.
