What year is it??
Do you use the A/C
It could be that the moisture from your A/C unit is leaking inside the vehicle instead of out the drain tube for the system. When you use the A/C is there a sign of moisture on the ground? I will look in the manual to see if it shows anything for the system.
EDIT: Check the evaporator drain hose on the firewall to make sure it is not plugged.
The manual also states that these vehicles are known for mildew on the evaporator core. There are Areosol Disenfectants that can be purchased at auto parts stores. The most effective are the most expensive aresol's. IF you are looking at cleaning the core let me know and I will repeat what the manual procedure is. Hope this helps.
