cracked shower/tub surround

2011 keystone sprinter, first trip of season and found 6 inch crack in shower surround, is this common or is it from the extreme cold od the winter? I am just going to caulk it for now but it looks easy to replace, just plastic rivets or pins holding it on..

    I wouldn’t say it is common and yes it is easy to replace…

    Mine should have cracked years ago. Flimsy support underneath.I suspect that may be the cause for yours as well. Please let us know.

    Not common, but not unheard of. Relatively simple to replace...or just JB Weld it.

    it was the sidewall that cracked, not the tub, just to clarify,,,may patch it for now unless it grows..

    You could drill a small hole at each end of the crack to help prevent it from spreading further too.
