When it rains, water starts to collect right inside both doors at the bottom. the water continues to build up until it soaks into the carpet on the bottom of the door and/or seeps over the edge into the carpet on the floor (near the hatch and gas tank release) or until I open the door and watch the waterfall. Anyone else have this problem or any fixes? I fear that it may start to ruin the interior down there if it keeps going on.

thanks in advance.

 

Hmm....

The rubber seals on the bottom outside the power window are the 1st line of defence. There should also be some plastic film/covering keeping the water out as well inside the door. Can't remember if there are any applicable drainplugs, but see if they're missing as well.

 

There are some drain holes in the bottom of the door (there are on every car door I have ever seen). yours must be plugged.

 

Thaniel is absolutly right. The doors are not designed to be water tight, rather designed to let water out at the bottom.

Look at the bottom edge of your door and look for little oblong holes. Poke something long and skinny like a small screw driver in each hole and clear out.

If that doesn't do the trick, then you'll need to pull your door panels and look inside and see whats going on. There is a plastic sheath between the panel and door that gets torn. Some of that plastic might have torn off and fallen inside the door and plugged the holes.

Clean as soon as possible as things like this is what promotes rust.
