X1 taillights (inner) cracking issues

I was doing car wash on my car and noticed both inner taiilights (the ones on the rear gate) were cracked on the bottom side. It looks like the shock from shutting down the trunk gate had caused it. It looks like a designing issue since the rear gate of the X1 cannot to be lowered automatically. The tail lights on the door take quit a bit of beating when you shut the door down. Has anyone noticed the same issue? Both cracks I had were on the bottom and can only be seen with the trunk door up. I will go speak to the dealer to see if they can be replaced under warranty.

Update, I have brought the car to the service center for the scheduled maint and let them checked the taillights. The service manager said he had never seen it happen before. He checked the cracked area and said there is no signs of it being damaged, so it should be covered under warranty. When I picked up the car later they told me they have ordered the parts. On the paperwork it says stress cracks on the rear tall taillights.
