silentdan Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 My 2010 Journey is having a problem on rainy days where the rear right door fills up inside with water and I have to peel a sticker on the bottom to drain. I cant figure it out on how the water is getting inside.Anyone experienced anything like this and what was your solution? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtsr Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 As far back as I can recall all car doors have bottom drain holes. Possibly your outer window seal has failed and therefore the water in the door. Take the sticker off or move it to allow the door to drain as it should.

silentdan Posted October 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 So now something else is happening ...yesterday I was picking up my wife from work and as I drive down the road my radio just turned off and my turn signals and A/C went dead as well. I originally thought maybe a fuse blew up or something but than when I got home I turned off and turned the car back on and everything came back to normal. I hope this is not a sign of things to come knock on wood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it rained than that is how you probably got the water in there or it could be melting snow.In my case we had some nasty rain that day and that is when i noticed the water in there.

ODIMUS Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 it stormed pretty good...should be able to get a replacement seal for the window... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brisco2365 Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 I find this subject pretty amazing ---- I HAVE THE EXACT SAME EXPERIENCE! back right door --> check after rain storm --> check temperature --- WARM (90+ degrees)...live in Florida probably 1.5 to 2 gallons of water in the door....slowly dripped out holes on bottom this water must get in through some kind of bad seal/design around the window the way I park, wind/rain blows from the back of the vehicle ---- I now back into parking space (see if this affects water in door next storm) Questions: 1. did anybody have their seals checked/replaced AND did it stop the water from getting in the door? 2. cost? 3. I'm worried about rust inside the door --- anybody experience this problem? 4. Even if water drains (as apparently designed)....wouldn't this cause rust inside door?
