This is a friends car:
When it rains there is water inside the car, I noticed today that the weather stripping around the outside of the glass is coming up in two places along the body. The car is going to the dealership tomorrow to have this fixed, I was just wondering if others have had this problem. There is 13K on the car and it's still under warranty. So there should not be any problem in having it fixed.

When mine was parked sideways on a steep grade, I got nearly 2" of water in the pass footwell. When I moved the car, it all drained out. That's my only experience with water in the car, though the entire Focus line is known for such problems. E-

Its a known problem. Sometimes they don't install a seal correctly (or it gets damaged when someone instals a cabin air filter). An easy fix although some have reported their dealer took a few trys to get it right.
