1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4.0 from North America
Summary:
Ideal dream car at a great price
Faults:
When I first bought it, it was leaking water inside on the passenger side.
The pulley for the belts on the crank shaft broke, which took out the serpentine belt.
The whole piece that holds the license plate and light fell off.
It keeps blowing out fuses for the fog lights.
General Comments:
The Jeep had an excellent drive, handles very well, very reliable and dependable.
Has a very comfortable ride, Air conditioning is very cold.
Once we fixed it have had no more problems with it.
It drives like a dream.
Am very happy and satisfied with my Jeep.
When certain streets flooded it drove through them like a pro, without any problems.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know

I am just going to comment on the two problems that I see you having.
First of all your lights are meant to do that. I have an 89 Cherokee with the same thing. They will automatically shut off after a minute or so. This is nice when you pull up to your house late at night and want to find your house keys.
Anyways, about the floorboards being wet by the front seat. My brother had this same problem in his 95 Cherokee. After being in the dealer a couple of times it turned out to be the front windshield was installed slightly incorrectly. That might be a good place to start.
