If water has entered the door of your Ford Fiesta through the gaps in the door seal, this video will help you resolve the issue. Usually, water enters but drains out through holes located under the door, which may have become blocked due to dust and dirt.

You need to ensure that the water can drain again. Locate these holes under the door and clear them to allow the water to flow out; otherwise, you will soon start to smell the unpleasant odour of mould forming due to the wet upholstery.

Use a small screwdriver to remove the dirt and let the water drain. Remember that the water must also drain with the door closed.
