Top Of Laptop Lid Cracking Near Right Hinge Area

Hello.  I have already had the lid to my acer replaced under warranty over a year ago and the lid is cracking again.  Online research has indicated this is an ongoing issue with this laptop.  Are there any recalls on the Extensa 5420 model regarding this problem?  I think my next one will be a Dell.  My husband had an acer and switched to Dell because of his issues with acer.
