Cracked outer skin wildcat maxx

We have a 2015 wildcat maxx 28rl. We took it out this weekend and noticed two cracks from top corner of both slides to the roof?? We have extended warranty but it doesn’t cover structural damage?? Are only hope is forest River will fix it. Has anyone experienced anything like this and what was there outcome?
Thanks for your help

Your best bet is probably to take it to an independent repair place and have them fix it.
You're far enough out of warranty that I wouldn't expect Wildcat to do anything about it.

I've been seasonal camping for about 6 or 7 years. I've seen several neighbors with these cracks. They all came back with different campers the next year. None talked a lot about it, so I suspect it was money lost for them.

Basically, your frame is shifting. The gelcoat is adhered to the frame with a strong glue like liquid nails. The part glued to the frame is separating from the rest.
