New Polo - Rear passenger door holding water

[msemma]

When it rains heavily, water collects inside the passenger side rear door on my 6 month old 07 Polo. When you open the door a lot of water falls out onto your shoes! I've been back to the dealership but the bodyshop says "no fault found". What can I / should I do?

I bought the car in July 2007 from new and when I bought the car I was told it was the "2008" model (now in the C VED band). I also had a problem with the rear door on the driver's side - there was rust appearing along the paintwork inside the door at the bottom, which has been removed. They told me this was "dirt causing rust" which sounds strange to me as I didn't know dirt caused rust!

Anyone else had any problems? Can you offer me any advice on what to do next? I'm planning to go back to the dealership this week

Dirt will cause the inside of the door to rust if it is blocking the drain holes under the bottom of the doors allowing water to build up, don't take silly answers from the dealers and don't give up until it's cured.
