Gaps/cracks inside glovebox compartment?

Hello everyone,

I was running a cable for my dashcam the other day and once I got to the passenger side, I opened up my glovebox compartment just to see how I would route it to the middle console and such. What I did notice after I opened my glovebox is that there are two gaps on either side that gave me the impression that it was cracked. I contacted my dealer to ask about it and at first he asked me to bring it in the following day, but then followed up with an email saying that those are normal as the cabin filter is behind it, so the gaps are on purpose so they can access it.

It still kinda left me with a doubtful feeling, I was wondering if other great owners would be able to check theirs and confirm with me if that's the case? I'm attaching some images to show what I'm referring to. You can somewhat see towards the edge that there is a crack/gap going down the side, on both ends.

My SX Turbo looks like that...2023...5 months old...emailed the dealer about, then saw this...my cracks are identical...right one looks cut, left one looks jagged.

Ok - that does it - now I hafta go and look in mine...
Ok...no cracks or gaps I can see or feel - should I feel hard done by, or what..? 🥸

I was just cleaning out my glove box, and looked up at the back of it, and saw the cracks... they are exactly as pictured previously and obvious. you should not have to look hard to see them, they are about 2 in long. when I saw the second one was a clean cut, it put me in mind of an expansion joint, but strangely the cut on the left hand side is sort of jagged as if it was broken. at any rate, it seems to be a common thing and oddly my cracks are identical to the post.
