A/C problem or not?

On all the vehicles I've owned over the last dozen years or so whenever the A/C has been running and you stop and park somewhere, condensate drains out on the ground for a minute or so. I've don't think I've ever seen anything draining from the HHR. Has anyone else noticed (Or NOT noticed) this? I'm wondering if a drain line is plugged up somewhere? Other than that (and the whine) the A/C works fine!
We sure needed it today! 118 degrees in Phoenix!

I caught my HHR peeing once. But I couldn't tell you if it drained out of a line or just condensation dripping though.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the condensate drain is located on the firewall. At least I hope that's what it is. if not I've got another leak to get checked out.

I'll have to go out and check for sure as soon as the Wife gets home from work this afternoon. I even called the Service Rep at my local Chevy Dealer (This guy drives an HHR too) and asked him about it.
He said he never really paid any particular attention to it, but didn't recall seeing any drainage either. He told me he'd try to remember to look after he went home last night and give me a call. I haven't heard anything from him, naturally!!

I think its normal. But as long as the car is still under warranty then it cant hurt to bring it in.
