The defrost drain is frozen. It is located at the back bottom of the freezer. Use a hair dryer to thaw it out and when thawed run hot water through it to check. Afterward, spray some "Pam Cooking Spray" into the drain so the water won't stick. This can be caused by the controls being set too cold or something in the drain line.

Ice and water on bottom of freezer

sjlobo, sounds like your defrost drain pan is frozen over or has some gunk in it. When the unit goes into defrost the water is running onto the freezer floor and out the front. Remove the lower bin and check the drain hole. You may have to remove the freezer back panel. If you can, just use some very hot water and some sort of baster to unfreeze the drain. Check this first, Catriver..post back.
