Yes cracks almost always develop.
This can be repaired easily.
First I tried filler putty, but that is too had and eventually cracked.
Last time I fixed this I used a plastic repair product called Plastex. Also works great on the fairing.

FYI Yours is a very small crack, easily repaired. I have successfully repaired much larger cracks.
