Some of your water drain holes in the doors are clogged. The only way
to fix them is to remove the door panel and the plastic liner, then
clean out the bottom of the door. The drains are small oval holes at
each bottom corner of the door. They are hard to find and are partly
covered by the door seal gasket.
When you're done, be sure to put the plastic liner back. You can use
gasket cement or rubber cement to glue it in place. If you leave it
out, the door panels will get soaked and destroyed the next time it
rains.
