This problem is not present in every car.
And atleast it is something not new to me because I have the exact same problem in my 7th gen civic since when it was just 4–5 years old (brought brand new). My car had rusting underneath door rubbers, rubber knobs, etc
A 9th gen Civic in family had the exact same problem. A friend’s 8th gen Civic had the same problem. Fortunately my 8th Gen Civic has no such issue.
So the problem is random. But has been consistent. Something is wrong somewhere at Atlas’s end.
