Description of the problem	Hvac heater core. As i was about to exit a major interstate, very hot almost boiling water dripped excessively on my right foot over my gas pedal. There was no where to easily pull over so i had to deal with it until being able to pull into a parking lot off of the exit. I immediately turned my vehicle off and checked beneath the dash. Steaming hot water was dripping from numerous places under the dash, mainly on the drivers side. I was able to take a video showing the steam from the water after it slowed dripping a bit. My vehicle is only 3 years old and has less than 70,000 miles. I believe this to be a major safety concern as i could have easily gotten into an accident. Luckily i could bare with the hot water enough to find a place to park and in addition to that i am so thankful i wasn't wearing open toed shoes or sandals!. Further diagnosis from a local trusted mechanic revealed my heater core now needs to be replaced. I am most definitely not purchasing a jeep again and will be trading it in as soon as possible. *tt
