Anyone else have this issue? When it rains pretty hard, I guess the wind blows rain against my garage door, so when I open it, water drips down on to the Stang! This sucks when she's freshly washed lol. Anyone have any solutions for something like this?

Buy a cover or wipe door down.maybe use a blower.open it partially and wipe down bottom which is probably where water is coming from

Lol I have this same problem, but I've never really worried about it (I do have a cover on it, but it's not a weather proof cover at all)

Tape a garbage bag over the joints that are leaking on the car, or put a garbage bag or shop towel on your car?

Get some detail spray and wipe it off. Good as new

My garage door does the same from the joint between the middle two panels and the one below it. Inflatable car cover (way overkill) as a possible solution? :)

I actually agree with @MAGS1 with the detail spray and a quick wipedown.

Take the blanket off of your bed, and lay it over the car.

I always worried about this but never had this problem. every time the door opens it doesn't drip... my door has a small rubber gasket in between each panel it can squish pretty good. If you take some foam rubber stripping that isn't dense so it can squish just put it in between the panel it'll keep the water out otherwise put duct tape on the inside of each hinge section

What a brilliant idea. Will take a bit more space when parking I guess, but I feel an immediate need to order something like that. Going to keep it in the trunk, ready to use whenever I'm parking in the city, or anywhere but my garage.
