On all the corsas i have seen they have had cracks starting in the door pilars, is it just a case of getting the cracks drilled at the ends to stop them continuing then the crack welded up or is there a plate i can buy to stop this happening again?

I filled the cracks on mine and it cracked pretty much straight after on the first drive

Its a design flaw on corsas and I think the only way of sorting it is getting a plate welded on behind it
