It's really a bad design by Ford . Water actually splashes up there while driving , when the doors are closed . The water then gets under the door skin lip and just sits there . The lip will start separating badly from the rust behind it . This has nothing to do with the doors drain holes . To fix it , you can use an abrasive wheel to sand the crap out of the rust till it's all gone . Then use a good Automotive grade sealer/Primer , and then paint .
