metal above right rear cargo window is denting metal above right rear cargo window is denting

Area above right rear cargo window keeps crinkling along this whole area. Now have several dents into the crease above the window and has become noticeable to the degree people are asking me what happened there? I think structurally there is a weld that has given out and as we are driving the car and it flexes this area is crushing.

I have been to Ford twice now and they look at me like I have dented this area and am not telling them. They say they have never seen the issue before. Something is wrong with the vehicle which I purchased new, has only 20K miles on it and lives in my garage. Ford will not do anything about the problem.
