Mine was like that the day I picked it up from the dealer.
I got a "due bill" from the dealer to fix the issue if needed.
But it was hot on August 28th when I got the car is So Cal.
To be honest, I just pushed on it really hard and it went back in and has stayed in.
But it has since cooled off a decent amount.
If it comes back out again I'll have the bracket looked at.
But also to be honest, I HATE bringing my car into a dealer and leaving it with the service guys who don't give a rats **** about your car, and sometimes you get it back with another issue, scratch, scuff, door ding, whatever.
On top of that having to wait all day long and all that BS.
Part of me even thought about what the dealer did and that is to inject some super glue like stuff in the crease and then push it in and let it harden and dry on there.
This way I don't have to deal with the dealer and it's a fix. If the epoxy super glue ever breaks loose, then I'd get it fixed the next time I needed to take the car into the dealer for something else too.
But as it stands, it's in and staying in, so I'm not going to do anything now anyway.

Yep... I noticed that as well... just on the passenger side though. Mine is not quite as extreme as the OP's, but noticable when it sits for a long period of time. Now as the weather is slowly getting cooler here in FL, it's not as bad anymore, but still something what bugs me!

Update; it’s been about 7/8 weeks since I got the car back. Epoxy was used to hold the bumper in place. So far it’s a nice tight fit, no warping in the sun.

Ford, we have a problem here.
Although I hate to post this because it's only going to fuel the haters of the 10+ rear end. I noticed the other day that the bumper cover was starting to poke out at the seam near the lights. Has anyone else noticed this happening on their 10+ mustangs?

Take it to the dealership I guess.
