It's either a sink mark from the way the material flows or cools at each attachment tab location, or a buckling of the plastic because the metal and plastic surfaces are not coordinated.
Most likely is that there is an intentional design gap between the attachment surfaces (in nominal "perfect" parts) so that any variation would not create a gap between the visible surfaces of the metal quarter panel and the plastic bumper cover (fascia). Parts vary, especially a flange on a stamped steel quarter panel, and they decided a little distortion in the plastic is better than the panels gapped away from each other.

My list of Issues:
Missing push pins everywhere.
Brake line right rear that was not secured properly
Wash line under hood not secured properly.
Car was built in August 23 I purchased in April 24 and even though the dealer cleaned it I spent hours getting all the crud off the rear window. Had to use 3m compound to get it clean it was that bad. Must have dipped this car in dirt and sat for months.
Passenger window scratch Ford says not cover since it wasn't found at delivery, BS
Horn went out after a month just got that fixed.
Clock won't stay in 24HR mode dealer still trying to resolve that.
Black screen twice now but reset fixed it just like a computer.
If you enter more than one custom mode it will revert back to normal after a few cycles on/off just like the clock.
Hood not adjusted correctly for fitment.

I went over this car with a fine-tooth comb and then fixed everything I could.

I was an aircraft inspector for 20 years and quality is not anywhere to be found at Ford. My 2022 Mach 1 never had any issues.

My car was also built August of 23, same exact issues you state other than the brake line. My exhaust was also horribly misaligned along with trunk and hood. I also paid for dealer added features that I realized later were never installed but charged for. Ford won’t do anything but log a complaint with the dealer. Had multiple conversations directly with Ford with nothing but lip service.
