Car doors in the little-known compartment of learning after drivers left baffled

A video showing a woman making a discovery

Drivers have been left baffled after discovering a new feature of their car doors – which they had no idea about.

TikTok on a feature that reveals a woman went viral – and racked up more than 22 million views in a tiny hole in a car door.

In the video, filmed by Sarah Blackbourn, she says she was made after researching why her sister’s car sounded like it had water in it.

After removing the plug, water comes pouring out – and someone says “Please drain your doors. Drain your doors people… c’mon.”

Many commentators were surprised by the video, as many asked if it was real.

One said: “Can’t tell if this is for real or y’all are playing along, and another replied:” It’s very real and need to drain your chassis rails sometimes. “

A third wrote: “I swear I learn something new every day!”.

Water can get past the window seals and the doors inside when it rains or when you wash your car, and the water is at the bottom of the exit through the holes.

But these can get clogged up due to dirt or debris from the road – meaning they need to be drained. e

You can find them at the bottom of the doors and at other locations.

According to the automotive site Cars.com, many vehicles will have drain panels and rear quarter panels, both of which are located near the doors.

Vehicles can also have drain holes in the windshield and near the boot to keep water from collecting in these areas.

To test if you have a blockage, run a hose over the windshield, boots and doors – and see if the water drains properly.

If it collects or drains slowly, you may have a blockage. A garden hose might have enough pressure to blast the debris out of the drain holes.
