2010 C250 Leaking on front Axle??

hello guys...i have a 2010 c250.
I just took my car for a ride, when i came home, i saw some big drops of water like liquid on the ground.
So i took a look at the bottom and saw the follow thing as you can see on the attached file.
The liquid feels like water, not oily. Not sure if it has something to do w/ the fact that i wash my car 2 days ago and haven't driven it until just now.
But any water should be dried out by now IMO.

What is the possible cause for it??

Is that still normal to have water dripping from the bottom?
Both the left and right front axle has the similar problem.
Is that something i should be concern about?

By looking at the picture, it does look like water is dripping over the axle. You need to look at something that is above the axle. It could be A/C parts, windshield washer or coolant hose?

I'm not sure that the A/C system would run without your knowledge (even if you didn't turn it on). The A/C system helps to control the humidity level inside of your cabin.

Look at something that is above the axle area and tell me what you see.

Check the windshield washer bottle. Mine had a crack and leaked badly. I fixed the crack by layering it with PVC pipe cement.
