Front Passenger Door Leak - Fixed

I saw there were a few people here with the problem of leaking doors and to my horror I found I have the same problem. Leaking doors is a seriously big problem if you live up here in the Pacific Northwest :P

Honda referred me to a local body shop because they cannot fix or diagnose water leaks. It took 20 minutes but they found the problem and fixed it on the spot. Guy there said my car was the 3rd fit they have seen with the problem. The rubber seal around the door frame was a tiny bit too small for the door so they had to replace it with one the proper size. Basically the seal start to pull away and allows water to leak down and soak into the floor. They ran the water test and I came back today to find out that fixed the problem.

Vin: late 2014 Mexico. 2015 EX-L.

Anyway, hope this helps someone else. It almost caused me to have a heart attack.

I had the same issue on my rear driver's side door. I think my Honda Care covered it though because I didn't pay anything. My carpet would basically always be wet after driving through the rain or even a drive-thru car wash.

similar issue

I live in the bay area and this is the second year in a row that my honda fit 2015 has a wet driver side passenger carpet The first year they fixed everything and replaced the carpet this year they refuse and blame it on something else. Is your car no longer leaking/have you check this season? Thanks for any info.
