Default Garage Floor erosion

For lack of a better word.....

If the topic was ceiling, we'd calls these nail pops. But the issue is concrete. Several places on my concrete (painted) garage floor have silver-dollar sized spots where the concrete has been pushed up and separated, almost like a nail pop. At first I thought, well maybe someone dropped a heavy object and damaged the concrete there. But the number of erupted areas is increasing.

Are garage floors just concrete slaps, or is rebar underneath? Is this possibly the result of settling? (House is 7 years old.) Anybody else seen this? I haven't called warranty yet to ask if this is a covered issue but will after hearing back from TV community.
