I would highly suggest that anyone living in the salt belt or state/ province that receives snow or even if you keep your car outside, have a look at the area where the OP indicates and have oil treatment applied if necessary.

Follow the lining all the way down and under the door itself with a good flashlight.
What type of oil are you talking about?

You must be kidding. This isn't a mere surface defect that can be claybared away. This points to a bigger problem.

Also, anyone know if this can be reported to a government agency for investigation? I'd talk to Honda of America if their customer service wasn't such a joke. Also, the same for the stealerships.
