I am not sure myself whether this is a defect?
But are the cracks at the outer edges of the windowsills normal after almost 2 years? If water stands on the windowsills, which normally should not happen because there should be a slope.
But let's say there is snow lying on the windowsill for a few days, doesn't moisture penetrate through the cracks into the WDS?
It is a prefabricated house in timber frame construction with corresponding insulation in KFW 55 standard. However, the insulation is not Styrofoam/polystyrene but wood fiber from Knauf?
Or are these normal settlement cracks at maintenance joints?
