Excessive road dust rear door sills

There is excessive black road dust on the rear bottom door sills.

I investigated a little further this afternoon.

The seals are mostly intact, although, one or two of them could use additional tacking for a tighter fit.

I also noticed a few millimeter gap along the edge of the bottom rear doorsill on both sides of the vehicle. It's clearly an opening because I can see my ground effect lighting shining right through!

I'll try and get some pictures posted soon.

Noticed the thing after driving on a gravel road. Heavy dust on all sills.
