Howdy-

This is kind of hard to explain, but when it rains, water collects b/w the
seal and the door itself so that it puddles on what you might call the
pseudo running board. It collects enough that you can hear a faint splash
when opening the door after a storm.

It doesn't come to the inner panel of the door, but the underside of the
vinyl is wet.

Any ideas?

TIA-

If you mean outside of the bottom seal my '03 does that too. I always
figured it was due to the towers of my bike rack breaking the seal at the
top.

Yeah, that's the ticket. I don't have any racks up top, but I think I
might take it in soon. Having the rain get caught and freeze seems like a
really bad thing.

Thanks-
