Corrosion coming from 2015 door hinges?

Every time my 2015 is washed or rained on, I get a "run" from the passenger side mirror past both hinges that leaves a whitish "calcified", streak down the door that's difficult to remove. I'm assuming it's aluminum/steel corrosion forming behind the door hinges? Has anyone else experienced this?

Not all '15 have the gaskets, they started adding them at some point between dec/Jan. Mine is an early Jan build and has them.

The mirrors collect water and it slowly leaks out where the mirror attaches to the door. The white stain is most likely hard water stains. There are several post regarding this and an easy to do mod to drill a small hole to let the water out faster.

Compressed air



Wheel out my air compressor with blow gun attachment and give my cars the once over before toweling off. Attention paid to nooks, crannies, mirror nacelles, and door jambs (doors closed) and problem is non existent.
