metal on metal scratch on new 2017 bambi

Hi everyone,
I am a new Airstream owner as of last week and can't believe I didn't notice this door frame scratch at the dealer while doing orientation. I am wondering what I should do/expect with dealer. Thanks in advance for any advice. I have attached a few pics.

Looks like a simple door adjustment, make a punch list of the items you find on your first couple of outings, just like a custom home, and then schedule a service appt. with your dealer to take care of all of them at once.
Happy Airstreaming!

The interesting thing is when I went back to the dealership 9 out 10 new trailers had the same issue. It's not a structural issue, just cosmetic but I was surprised nonetheless considering that is is obviously a manufacturing issue...I have a little OCD in my blood and when I buy something new that is very $$$$ I wan't to be the one putting scratches on it, not buying it that way. Oh well...
