Cracked weld? Please confirm

today I noticed my 2019 X with less than 1000 miles have a split in the FWD frame and it’s consistent on both sides. Can anyone confirm this is normal?

The crack I see in your photos is in the paint - it may or may not extend further into the weld, but it's certainly worth looking in to.

It's inconvenient to check the passenger side in my garage, but I don't have that on the driver's side on my 4 months old, 13k mile X. I do have a raised lip about there at the forward side of the weld, but no cracking at it:

If you hadn't made these pictures I would have been scared to death seeing this on my own X (from June 30 2019), but it doesn't look quite as bad here.
The car has done 12000 km in about 3 months now.
