Cool Drywall problems

We have had our new home for five years now and six months ago I noticed that in our garage ceiling all the seams of drywall were cracking and falling off. I didn't take it seriously until it started in our living room. Our home warranty states that the drywall is covered for one year. After taking a close look at the problem I noticed that none of the seams were taped before the joint compound was applied. I have had three homes built in Wisconsin and have never had a drywall problem. Is this the norm in Florida or did the trades people take some short cuts. I would like to know if anyone else have had this dry wall issue and if there is any recourse for me.
