The rear drain holes at the bottom of your doors are stopped up and need to be 
cleaned. This does not mean that the rubber door gasket is bad. The water came 
out of the front drain hole, but the rear one must be stopped up. These holes 
are oval, about 1cm x 0.5cm. You can try to clean them with a wire or stick, 
but it MAY be necessary to open up the door and clean out the inside.
