Recently my laptop starting having issues with the physical clicking on the trackpad. At first it wasn’t registering many of the physical clicks on the pad, then it moved to there being a slight travel in the bottom left corner. I’ve opened the laptop and tried the rubbing fix and that didn’t do anything. I’ve reset the thin black clip that was running along the edge of the pad.

Has anybody else come across these issues? I’ve read that this is a hardware issues from the manufacturer. Is this true? Is there something that I can do or or do I need to have apart replaced?

Welcome to the forum.

I know it doesn’t answer your questions, but unless a touchpad has a _really_ good full area physical click implementation, I find tap-to-click to work much better, more consistent, and without frustration one you get use to it.
