Is anyone else experiencing issues with the drains at the bottom of their door clogging with debris? Opened my rear driver side door this morning and a small waterfall poured out despite the rain stopping before I got up. Pulled up the little black strip at the bottom of the doors and all three holes had all sorts of debris in them. Other doors looked okay. Car is only 6 months old, didn’t expect this to be a problem. Do I have a faulty seal where the window rolls up?

I had the same issue with my '22 SI's rear passenger side door. I heard water sloshing when pulling in and upon further investigation found debris clogging the drain. Cleaned it out and it drained a lot of water out. Hadn't had it full up again since I did it.
