2011 Windjammer 3065W Cracks above slides

Ive also posted this in dollars and cents, wasnt sure where to put it.

Hi Yall, Last year I bought a 3065w windjammer. First things first, Ill state that I love this camper. Never thought Id own one, till i found this one. The problem is that i found these two cracks above the back rear slides ( both sides). I was thinking, ok that sucks and was thinking about filling the cracks with putty and bondo with a clear coat finish. Anyways I got curious and searched the problem. I found this board. This place is great, alot of good info. Turns out several people have had this problem and its starting to freak me out. No one stated that if its can go on being like this or if its just totally screwed. Im the second owner of this r.v. and I bought it from a guy that rents out r.v.s for a living. My questions are. Am i totally boned, will the camper fall apart at the cracks? Can I not just fill it and be done with it. Second question, Im the second owner and its a 4 yr old camper, will forest river back the quality, regardless of who owns it? Im starting to be concerned with this whole deal. Thanks yall.

Sounds like a structural issue due to too much flex. Can't be patched as it would just crack through. Interested to see Forest River's response to the problem.
