Are there drain holes or slots in '08 Explorer side body sills? I was unable to find any. It's brand new, and the drains, if they exist, cannot be clogged. There are a few holes on the inner side of the sills, but they seem not to drain water from the bottom.

I'm trying to find mine too. I can't believe no one replied to you in 9 years. I think this is why the rocker panels rust
 






do you have a sunroof? there are 2 drains up top
 






I’ve noticed my rear doors hold water in the bottom as well. So weird
 






Clean out the plastic drains on the doors
 






I believe there are drain slots at the pinch molding under the rocker panels. But they are very difficult to locate. I'm having no luck. I think that's why these rocker panels rust out. When you open your doors does water drain out? I find the door gasket holds water in when the door is closed. I pressure wash the bottom of my doors occasionally to make sure they drain well
