Stains on garage floor from Mach-e

[Benny’66]

It doesn't rain much in Phoenix, so garages don't generally get dirty floors like in cold weather areas, but recently it has been raining quite a bit. The car seems to collect a lot of water, presumably in the battery pan or someplace, because when we park it in the garage, it drips more than most cars and leaves brown stains at all four wheel locations. No other car, including my previous EV ever did this. Sure, you get some water dripping, but this is a mess. Is anyone else seeing this?

Maybe it’s remnants of your last Haboob.

This is Phoenix. No Snow, and fender solvent goes on popcorn here, not roads.. This is an oddity, and I think it is being captured in the battery tray. My previous EV didn't do this. As stated before, neither has any of the 20+ cars I've owned before. This is NOT from the rotors.

@ZoNiE I think you are right. Drips that I've have noticed recently are coming from that likely corners of the bottom of the car not from the tires.

But In the past few weeks have noticed on other occasions it can be the the rotors. And those were a little stain rust color.

I don't notice any rust color from the likely tray drips. That would be bad right?

Rotors always rust. They don't stain the floor. Garantee they are all rusted on my truck... No stains. It is definately some crud maybe from the assembly process that washes out. My Rav4 EV didn't do this, but then I didn't buy that new either. Just glad it wasn't on my driveway pavers.
