I bought a 2020 kenevo expert a month ago and luckily havent had a crash, just some minor front wheel washouts but nothing of importance.

The thing is that I when was cleaning my bike I noticed that the frame was dented on one side, right where the fork bumbers touch the frame. How could that be possible?? Could it be a faulty frame from the factory?... I'm attaching pictures

It is really strange since the frame doesnt have any other marks or dents besides the one in the picture. The fork is straight and so is the front wheel, like I told you, no crashes.

Mine has a little dink there. I suspect the rubbers weren't at the correct angle and the previous owner had a tumble.

Looking at the picture, it seems the part of the fork (arrow) hit the frame. Is there a protection to overturn the handlebars?

EDIT: ahhh, I see - this part (arrow) is rubber! So, either the rubber is too hard or the frame is too weak at this spot.

I've got a dent here too. Mine was caused by a crash. I've noticed even with the rubber bungs to protect the frame they are soft enough the stanchion can still hit the frame.
