hairline cracks on the base of AirPods Pro

Has anybody seen hairline cracks developing from the base where charger connects on AirpodPro's ? I called Support and they are asking me to take it to a service center but all service centers are closed for Covid. Cracks are on both pods, no other damages in the body, they are in perfect shape otherwise never been dropped

Seam or Crack on airpods pro Hi All, I have discovered a seam or a crack on my right airpod, I bought it like two weeks back and while cleaning I saw a fine extremely thin line. Its on the right airpod and not the left one, I check it online and I see many people have come across this. I wanna know if its normal.

Left ear Airpods crackles like a blown out speaker Left airpod crackles like a blown out speaker whenever I have 'Noise Cancelation' or 'Transparency' On. It's not happening when these options are turned Off. This isn't a user issue. I only use them at my desk for work (Zoom calls, phone calls, or listening to music). This started about a month after purchase. Unfortunately, I did not take advantage of the 3-month warranty and I am well past that date. Can these be fixed? Replaced? I've seen many posts about this issue but haven't seen any solutions.

Crackling noise in AirPods Pro Hi, I have a crackling noise in my left AirPods Pro gen 1, went to a reseller to have them review and see if the AirPods Pro Service Program for Sound Issues applied, but due to my serial number and the manufacturing date after October 2020, they told me that the can't fix or repair. Does somebody have the same problem? my AirPods Pro, one left side.
