Shower seat repair?

Ok..so I pulled my shower apart on my 2023 370FB. The attached pictures should tell the story of what I found. Hopefully this helps others consider whether or not they want or need to tackle a rebuild like I am. Since my rig is 3 years old, I would probably only get half price for it. No sense taking a haircut, to only get a new model with the same possible issues. The jury is still out whether we will see complaints on the Instant hot water heaters and full shower inserts. I am thinking those full inserts are going to be taking a lot of stress, based on the framing choices and technique I see here. Fixing the issues myself, will be much cheaper. Hats of to all of the DIY members!! I only have 3 hours into this so far. Now it is time to price out some options. I will share the costs, when I nail them down. Any ideas or thoughts will be appreciated.
