Plastic piece sticking out

So I hit a road bump as there was no warning going 35-40. And it jump a little. Now I got a piece of the plastic on my left side turn signal light sticking out instead of staying in. Any suggestions on how I could push it back in? Or would this be covered by warranty for free? I just got this in February this year.
It's pretty minor but hey! New car.

Agreed...everybody should own plastic trim tools via Amazon… Soak it down with WD-40 and try and push back in , as Chris said

This whole car snaps together.....LOL

Or...take it back to the dealership. That shouldn't happen from hitting a bump. It will certainly be covered under warranty...they're built to take bumps!

If your asking if you can take your car to a dealership besides the one you purchased it from then the answer is yes. You can take your car to any competent chevy dealer, just have to find that type of dealership.

I actually took mine to the cadillac dealer I go to and they had no issue doing the warranty work. So I'm guessing any GM dealer could probably do it.
