    A couple of weeks ago I noticed that the front (closest to the keyboard) edge of the trackpad has come unsealed from the topcase in the center, so not only is there a bit of flex, but if I actually press down the front of the trackpad moves down independent of the case. The trackpad still works fine, but I worry this might become an issue later on. Is this a known issue? Should I contact customer support? Any home-fixes?

    I have this same exact issue, I read from someone here that this was resolved after putting a second HDD there with the caddy.
