Water in the door
Seems whenever it rains or I wash the car, water gets in the passenger side doors. No water enters the cabin. I had not opened the back passenger door in a few weeks, when I did water came out for about 10 mins. I’m worried that electronics in the door might be damaged. It’s a 2018 E300

Just my $.02:
Even if someone else has had the problem, what difference does it make to you?
You are going to wind up going to the dealer: either to find out that it is normal or if not to have it fixed.
Not to make you feel worse: I have never had water in my door either washing it, going through a car wash, driving in pouring ran or driving in snow and slush.

I've had water getting into and trapped in a door in previous gen e coupe, the problem seemed to be drainage blocked by leaves. But never had or heard of anything similar to your experience. Definitely something wrong there.

Pretty much all doors have opening at bottom seam to let water out....
Gets blocked with crud and junk.... then door fills up when washing or heavy rain as it drips out slower then it goes in....
Bet you could fix it by just wiping bottom of door entire length and examining seams and look for small drains...
