It's possible they did not leave a gap at the walls or it got wet. Could also be moisture coming up through the slab.

How do you repair a chip in a Pergo floor?

Sadly, there isn't a lot you can do. If you have the chip you can use a little of epoxy glue to put it back into place. Most likely something will catch it again and take it back up. I have seen some fillers on the market that try to match the color of the floor. The wood grain will not be there but it might not be as much of an eye sore. The best recommendation is to put a rug over it.
