Just for some reassurance for people.

As I stated I've had this problem. Mine WAS NOT clogged drains. I checked and rechecked the drains they are not clogged. It has to be bad window seals.

no window sill is water tight. if they were, drains and water shields would not be needed. Even with no sill, properly function drains will not allow water to pool in the door.

Either bend the sheet metal drain hole to enlarge it or modify the lower weatherstrilp to stop t from blocking the flow out of bottom of the door. You should be able to figure it out without throwing parts at it.

Leaking rear crew cab door

I have a 2010 Silverado Crewcab LTZ. Rear door has leaked and filled up from day 1. Dealer claimed could find nothing. Rear speakers fried and they did nothing.
