Black trim is a coming loose a bit

The black trim, in front of the driver side front wheel well, down near under the front bumper is coming loose a little...it looks flush and perfect but you can lift the front edge up and away from the car just a little bit.....does anyone know if the trim is just glued on or are there some clips that might be broken. I hope not to do anything about this until the next time it goes into the dealer in a couple months for its 50,000 mi service.

The trim pieces are held on by clips. The only reason the trim would be comming off is if the panel it's on is bent. Well, that's the only reason mine are comming off/are not evenly held.
