The is brake fluid is in that area. Not sure if thats it or some AC liquid collected after sitting for a while? I live in Florida so I use the AC all the time.

Check your evap drain port. Prob plugged.
If your brake res is making slosh sounds, you prob shouldn't be driving at all... or drive out of the lake at least. Lol
