So noticed this today while looking at the hot water heater.
Our 5.0 was picked up October last year.
Heavy rain all weekend.
Steady drip dropping off a wooden support sticking out of foam under the fridge down the wheel arch into the hot water heater bay and pooling directly on a fibreglass channel behind the water heater.

Looks like there is drain hole, so most of that has been dealt with. Also water appearing at the back wall of the cubby under the fridge, i.e. on top of the laminate, not good.

Any ideas? I've ready past posts from years ago of a design fault leading to water getting in under the fridge external side vent, but I presume that design issue has been fixed. I did note that the external caulking on the side vent is only on the top half? I read somewhere this is deliberate?
Otherwise a problem with a ceiling vent?
I've raised a trouble ticket with Escape.
