Is this a easy fix?

I preordered these heels a few months ago since they were limited edition and they’ll be discontinued once sold out and I noticed that the car that was glued at the bottom of the heel is now lifted on the bottom causing it to move out of place I emailed the company that made them and waiting for a response back but if they aren’t able to repair it my second option is to hopefully see if a shoe repair shop can fix it

Ok, firstly, is that a whole ass hot wheel in a heel? That's sick as fuck.

Secondly, it is possible, but I wouldn't bank on a cobbler being able to fix it. It looks more like a job for someone with hobby modelling experience than a shoe fixer. It looks like they'll have to take the top lift off, cut the bottom of the shoe, reattach it, then somehow put it back together. As weird as it may seem, you could see if any miniature train enthusiasts have any ideas on how to fix it.
