Go to Apple, get them to look at it. Don't even try to remove the keyboard yourself, you'll most likely brick it and it voids your warranty.

If it's within warranty, definitely take it to the Apple Store.

If it's not within warranty, it's not that difficult to get to, so long as you have a lot of time, have the tools, and can follow an iFixit guide. There's not necessarily need to remove the keyboard, but it's possible something could have fallen into the keyboard, which would be more difficult to remove.

If you're within the 14 day return/exchange period then swap it out for a new machine. I had something similar and, while it was only a slight annoyance, I figured that over a use period of 5+ years it would end up becoming quite annoying and also affect its resale value so I opted for a full replacement.
