Side panel has a melted hole on drivers door

my new 2019 Acura - I have made two trips from GA. to NC and both times there is a small hole in the outside drivers door black panel.
it looks like someone put something hot on it and melted a hole in it. I have now taken the car back to dealer twice and no one has a clue why this has happened. Is there anyone out there that has heard of this and knows why it happened??? To me it seems like the long trip could cause it - maybe heat ??? But mechanics say there is no hot wires under that panel. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

you have to host the pictures somewhere. like photobucket, google photos, etc... I believe Acurazine has a photo hosting site, but you have to upload it....

then grab the URL's

Sometimes I have to attempt the upload several times before the site posts it. Dunno why.

+1 on the dirtbag with a cigarette theory

But is it exactly the same place each time?

I'm assuming he just made the account and new members can't post pictures through here for a certain amount of time. It's been like 5 years since I made my account on here, iirc it was 15 days or a certain number of posts or something like that.
