Slow down / stop fiberglass crack?
The side of the rv at the rear of the bedroom slide has very recently developed a crack. Will drilling a hole at the end of the crack help? What size drill?

Typical skin crack; below the window in the slide out at this spot. My '97 had it and drilling a hole didn't stop it. No damaged structure problems. Just a stress crack.
I dropped by my rv dealer and asked what was the fix. The service guy gave me a 10" long piece of joint molding. I cut the crack in the siding all the way down . Ran a bead of sealant over the crack and attached the molding two SS screws. Now looks like OEM.
If you notice older units and maybe some new units have a short piece of molding in that spot. The factory got smart and cut the skin at that spot and installed molding.
