Default fried switches

some mornings there is dew or condensation or water due to rain on the roof of my xb...i know that is normal but the problem i have is that if i put my window down and stop before all of the water on the roof has rolled off the back a bunch of water comes into my window and lands on my door armrest and window switches....it doesnt stay in the gutter thing on the roof and go down the windshield

its only happened a few times cause usually i make sure but the other day i guess it was too much or it managed to leak in somehow...it ended up fryin my drivers window switch...i dont know why it was only the one window but i had to take it to the dealer and i sat there for 2 hours and i have to go back tomorrow cause they didnt have the switch in stock and they had to order it

i was wondering if this has happened to anybody else...i also wanted to warn everyone that it is fairly easy to burn out the switches if you get them wet
