Default water in door thresholds

When it rains or I wash the truck, water is puddled in the threshold of all 4 doors (I think). The water is between the door and the plastic threshold trim panel, so there is no water getting into the cab as far as I know. I assume this is a universal problem with the H3. Is there a fix or do I ignore it?

I thought the water might be coming into the door seal pressure relief holes then leaking down and out towards the inside (because the bottom relief holes are above the threshold). I drilled some holes in the very bottom of the seal for one door, but the water still puddles. (The seal may just be smashed to much to allow the water to drain.)

I have an 09 alpha they also has the water in the threshold. I believe it's water that gets thru the top door seal and sits on the threshold.

I did have a sunroof drain leak that originally brought me to this forum. Had to take all the back panels off the interior to get to both hoses but it was worth the effort to cut the hole bigger and not have to worry anymore.
