It happens to my previous vehicles. A friend of mine told me that sometimes different materials used on battery terminals and wire termination can have the effect. When I switched to lead terminals, it never happened to me anymore.

lead does not react with battery acid.
many years ago, lead was the metal of choice for battery cable terminal clamp metal. at that time kasi, battery technology was still not as good as today's, and neither was voltage regulator science. every battery would cause the non-lead terminal clamps to develop white deposits and loosen.
lead clamps do not do this. but because lead was soft, it deformed with time and got loose, and the resulting electrical connections got weak. we had to regularly service them terminals.
in response, manufacturers introduced the harder metal alloys like brass, copper, and others, which would oxidize naman, necessitating regular maintenance, cleaning and tightening.
it is only now, with better battery sealing, that non-lead clamps can last longer, without regular maintenance.

notice that even today, all our auto batteries still use lead for their battery terminal posts.
