Keep all doors closed and open the rear left door and slam it while keeping an eye on these one way flaps. Then you would know the purpose of this.

i think i get what you mean, but sadly i cant do that experiment, since the rear bumper is already mounted back.

This is to stabilize cabin pressure/release excess pressure when all doors and shutters are closed. If some one had sealed this, esp in old cars which are tinkered by makabasses, you would feel a sudden pressure on your ear drums if the only opened door had slammed.

Since this only works one way, no dust/outside air comes in, but rats do sometimes
