Anybody else have an issue with water in their back doors? This past weekend I had opened them and water started pouring out of the back doors. I left them open for about an hour.

Last night we had a big storm and this morning when I hit the brakes I can hear water sloshing around inside the door. It only seems to be the back doors, no issues with the front that I can tell.

I found something online for the 10th gen about messing with the weather stripping on the bottom of the door and getting the water to come out. They were saying debris in there blocked the drain.

The car is going to the dealership on Friday to get it checked out.

just clean under the rubber seal, I have noticed this especially when the maintenance people of my condominium use the blower for the leaves and the grass after cutting, they blow everything over the place but still manages to enter through the seals, but when you lift the rubber seal you will notice that there are about 3 slots you can clean there, if you see that nothing comes out and feel that still water there can use a wooden toothpick or something that cannot lift the paint to avoid rust, i do that every car wash and no issues so far but the first time was a lot of debris below the seal and inside the door.

I used to get that in my SI. Water in one of the back doors. The solution above also worked for me. The drain holes get clogged easily.

I lifted the seal on both back doors, the one on the driver's side had so much water in it. It was like a waterfall.

I cleaned up underneath them, I'll have to really get in there better this weekend. I've had a lot of cars over the years and have never had one that did this.
