I did see that there was a velcro fix has anyone done that ?
My 22 SR5 hasn't developed the issue yet . Neither have 25 k on them.
Anyone have a suggestion?

Last summer I had that edge pop apart when I nudged a snow bank when off roading. In my case, it also tore the edge of the wheel well liner so I had to replace the liner and many of the clips and push pins for the liner and the wheel arch molding.
Agree that the seam between the bumper cover and the fender is weak and prone to coming apart.
I would suggest that you inspect the edges of the wheel well liner to be sure all the parts line up properly and all fasteners are in. You might undo those clips to release any tension on the bumper cover, snap the bumper cover into the fender, then reattach the liner. Have some extra clips and push pins on hand for they tend to get brittle over time and break.
I doubt that you will get warranty service for a problem that long in the past.
