Depends on which section you're talking about. The part with the Mustang plaque should be sealed off. The lower section above the rocker panel is a water drain, so any time water drains around the door that section will get wet.

The stickers in front of door are intact.
The water is coming in low. I could not find it.
There is a body shop in my town with a leak specialist.
Going there next.

You have quite a few threads on here pertaining to your water leak concerns.

When you are referring to the door jamb, are you referring to when the door is open and water is laying on the top of the rocker? Can you provide pics?

The doors have drainage holes in the bottoms of them to allow rain water or any water for that matter to drain. The water will drain from the door onto the rocker that is directly under the door. It should NOT be dumping water to the interior of the car at all.

There’s many threads on here about water accumulation inside the vehicle on the front floors (and some rear). In many instances the water intrusion is caused by missing seals on the A-pillar, bad window weather seals, clogged drainage holes at bottoms of doors, or poor seam sealer or welding of the A-pillars behind/under the windshield.

If it’s a convertible, check this thread:

They found a possible leak, On the B pillar is a small seal. Simple piece of rubber Ford wants 180$ for. We will try to glue it since it is still in one piece. I will replace it when the price comes down. 2014 the price is 29.95 go figure

last week I paid 25 bucks for 4 battery cover clips and I thought I got ripped off. 180 for some door gasket is nuts.
