Microwave Two Years Old And Handle/door Cracking

We purchased our over the stove microwave two years ago.  Already, the door and handle are cracking.  It is appears this is a common problem as there others posting this problem on the Internet.  I am wondering what to do with this problem?  How long can it be expected to last?  The replacement appears to be almost as much as a new microwave.  Is there a way to preserve the door and handle from further cracking?  I am wondering if this is a recall item.  Thanks for your response.

The unit is now out of warranty. Only option would be to replace and handle itself or the door.
