    I took a look at my G53SW today and noticed the the right side of the chassis is popped out and I can't get it back into its original position.
    Has anyone had this problem?
    How can I fix this?

    You can see the bronze color in this picture where it is popped out.

    This is me trying to push it back in, but it won't stay

    make sure the ports on that side are flush. If not you may be able to get them to seat right. If not, then you'd have to disassemble it to redo it.
