Cabinet Filler Holes PROBLEM

We have a 2 year old 2306 Rockwood. All of a sudden we noticed on ALL the cabinets that there was a line of "holes". At first I thought it was some kind of insect and then saw it is on every cabinet and under every cabinet. Straight lines where the "nail" or perhaps staple are to hold the cabinets together. Seems almost spontainiously they lost their filler. I thought we would try putting in wood compound or something (that would be quite a job) but then we would have to stain to match the veneer. Has anyone had any weird problem like this? thanks

Humidity?

I have been using this.



Or

The staples/screws/nails are working out due to vibration.

They use caulking to fill the staple holes and over time it shrinks. Most likely they used very little on yours, and only had a thin skin over the holes. Another example of craftsmanship at its finest. You should feel lucky they filled them at all. The common practice is to fill the ones at eye level and let everything else go.
