agreed, dealer should remedy for no cost

cars doors are meant to get water inside them when it rains
so... how toyota dropped the ball on the rav4 gasket is a mystery to me

my three other toyotas never ever had an issue with door sloshing and
they stay outside 24x7x365. 2022 rav4 doesn't have an issue but I'm
expecting it someday, but maybe it won't happen

The seal is most certainly failing, Maintenance at the Toyota dealer said it was and also said, it's doing it on rav 4's and other models as well. this is not something normal. And it is most certainly a safety issue with MOLD and the car door rusting out....

water gets inside cars doors from rain. period. all cars.
some more than others but they all get wet inside the door clamshell
manufacturers know this and design accordingly.

doors are designed to handle this. painted, some parts coated with waxy crud, and have
plastic sheets to direct water away from the door components and let it drain lower holes

the only defect in rav4 that is common, is blocked drain holes on the lower gasket. this has
a TSB to remedy
