Sounds alot like my old 99' escort zx2 I just sold for $400. Unfortunatley I only got 147k out of it before the tranny went out, but I was rear-ended 4x, hit medians, trees, cars popped 3 tires on a camping trip, used to try and jump it over large bumps on hilss etc... Good Times! Now that i'm a little older i'm going to try buying a new 2009 Corolla S. I'm hoping I can do all the same fun stuff with it lasting 300k miles. The Toyota is about double the price of the escort so i'm praying for better reliability because I was genuinely <--(sp?) suprised how much that ford took and kept going, you hear so much bad stuff about american cars but I guess for 1/2 the price you get what you pay for.

I have a 1999 Toyota Corolla, 4 door. My two front doors get filled with water. In the winter they freeze shut. Does anyone know how the water is getting inside the door walls. Thank you.

Are the doors actually getting filled with water or are the locks just freezing ? Freezing locks is a common problem with almost any car after a rain and then a freeze. Doors filling with water is a totally different problem and has to be some kind of weather stripping problem.

There's an interesting problem. My '98 has never done that, but I don't discount your issue because of my experiences. I hope you get a good answer!

It sounds to me like the drain holes at the bottom of your doors (there should be two) are plugged with grime and dirt--check close to the welding seam of your doors to see if there's anything obstructing these holes. If so, you can use a thin wire, like a straightened paper clip, to unplug the holes.
