A few weeks ago I noticed some of the slotted drain holes on the bottom of my Escapes doors were clogged up with what appears to be adhesive or caulk , apparently from the factory.
There are two slots on each door and on the the drivers door both were completely clogged . I carefully drilled a 3/16 " hole near each clogged drain. Quite a bit of water drained from the drivers door. After everything was good and dry I used a paint brush to prime the perimeter of the holes. I've had it in the rain and car washes since and that seems to have worked very well. Maybe this is not common , but though I would give a heads up. :yikes:
