Happens when A/C is hard at work cooling? Worst
when the humidity is higher?  Ever get water mist out of
the dash vents or water dripping onto your passenger's
feet?   It may be that condensation is accumulating due
to plugged drain(s) and sloshing into the blower fan
during turns. Locate the drain tube(s) under the car and
run a length of coat hanger wire up them to clear.
Not an uncommon problem.
