Arm rest door handle problem?

i drive a 05 sedan and today my door handle randomly popped loose. to be a little more detailed, its the passenger side door and its basically the arm rest part that u would use to pull the door close when u get inside. my retarded friend mustve pulled on it too hard that it made a loud pop sound and now the handle is loose and pops open when he closes the door. has this problem ever happened to anyone? if so, will the dealership replace it as part of warranty?
