Just found a bunch hair line cracks on the inside door skin around the window area. This has happened in the last 6 months while at the storage lot. I thought it was metal, but metal doesn't do this. Has anyone done repairs on the door, or do I have to take it to a Camper repair facility?

Thanks for any help.

I had a 2017 RP172, first year they put a factory window in the door. Never hear of the actual door cracking, but heard plenty of cracking around the doorway cutout, mostly on the 195 or 196 models. I believe that the cracking on those is mostly from people putting to much pressure on the door side back stabilizer. Don't think that would cause door cracks.
